Blithfield Reservoir Birder in Midlands. Love raptors of all kinds, love birding since 13 years old. Lived in Somerset for 20 years, different birding but loved it. Still at 56 years old still getting out birding most weekends & holidays. Happy days 😀
For some reason my crap photo of red kite didn't make it on here ? Anyway ordered phoneskope adapter, has anyone used one or similar? Like I said hopefully it will produce better image than hand held trying to line up lens in scope eyepiece 😂

Poor image of red kite @ blithfield res on sat trying to take through scope( kite having a bath ), hand held so ordered phoneskope adapter from @ birdersstore. Hope next time get decent image 😂😂. Assuming it does the job instead of hand held trying to line up lenses etc 😀

Sitting in Swan pub beer garden as normal, just had pr grey wagtail over, which is nice. Ongoing joke over the years with locals in pub ie mates that 1 day will see red kite over here. Yes seen many obviously but not over this beer garden, 1 day I will I am sure. Ongoing observing while having pint
