Great commotion on the shoreline! At least 3 old blokes attracting the attention of passing dogwalkers and their assorted mutts and pooches with their scopes and lenses. What's up? Just a trio of snow buntings. Actually they have been around for a while, I must have heard of sightings first at least a month ago, but hadn't had any luck spotting them myself on my fairly frequent perambulations along the shore line. Anyway, I scuttled back for lens and tripod, yep still there so I was happily snapping away. Obliging birds, (actually someone had spread around some seed/nuts) good light with the sun , low over the welsh hills, peeping under the cloud cover like a well aimed studio light. Then my camera bleeped.
"memory card full". Well thats never happened before, not with 16GB card. Still I had more than enough pics to be going on with. K5, 31A, f8/f9, 800ASA/1600ASA.
