I was just about to upload a photo I took of a Robin but after seeing the quality of those I don't think I'll bother!

Here's a dragonfly I managed to capture on Vai Beach, Crete

Wow, Martin MPS! That looks like a Common Darter Dragonfly which are also common in the UK. Did you know that I run a UK Dragonflies & Damselflies group page on facebook?

^ One I snapped on my pocket size FinePix F500EXR in my 'Backyard' this summer. Also a Common Darter.

Making progress with DSLR photographing birds in my garden (when the light is good enough!).

Do you never get any of these down your way Robin?

I've seen two In Northallerton of late but never been quick enough to catch them with the camera.

....I have heard of sightings down here but never seen any myself. All small birds, except perhaps Wrens, are tricky to photograph as they suddenly dart about.

^ A better self portrait  :grin:

I am fast building a whole folder of Robins photos - He's always in my garden.

I had to quickly step back to grab this shot as I had the 70-200mm lens on.

They will eat tit-bits out of your hand, apparently very sociable birds
