We have just returned from a week in Suffolk at Dunwhich Heath, next door to Minsmere RSPB.
A first for us was not one but two Gloss Ibis on 9 October on the scrape from West Hide, always distant but very much a first. My shots are purely for the record, I want to record my photographic highs and lows and show my birding highlights on this blog. I am sorry you only get an idea of this bird in the location.
I have never (sorry to you digiscopers) thought of digiscoping but as the Ibis was so distant and looked good through the scope I hand held a compact to the scope, did'nt really work but that was due to me. The third image is my first digiscoped effort!

Thats good for a first effort Mike. It does need a lot of experimenting with different cameras and scope lens size as well.
Lovely pictures and awesome photography.
Oh¡¡ ibis. Lovely bird. Saludos
Thanks for all your comments.
Roy, you are very kind. There was a binocular display at Minsmere and we were talking to the guys about what is required, I might explore further, not as good as SLR but enables arecord shot sometimes when my kit will not.
Thanks very much - Kids Resources & Pablo.
