Nice collection. I wish I had the patience and skill required to take such photos.

Nice gallery, John.
Cool to have two galleries about birds of England.

Pictures are pretty beautiful; I would like to ask you for your honuourable permission to copy them into my files as they are necessary component for publishing my folklore story "LUTEY AND THE MERMAID" I"m writing
If you are so kind to send me into my e-mail address, I would be very grateful
PS. I'm very interested in the picture of Mallard- feeling clod, seagulls, (we've got those in our pond in the district in Poland, Radom, were I happen to live); or any others from Curry village or Lizard Point- places mentioned in the plot of the story, maybe you're in the possession of countrymen, kids, countrywomen etc.; Lutey , the marmaid, the house etc.

Dave, I have not even determined the birds proper names yet.
Lucky some people looking are helping me out.
Dave Beedon 05-Dec-2007 09:26
Nice gallery, John. Have you determined which of the birds are drones or androids?
