I was going to give the new addition to the collection a name but I think the beast will have to be sufficient.

I have not used it in anger yet though I am about to venture out into the cold photographing any bird that presents itself, I will share any I take and add them below on this post, mind you it is only 3C and I wouldn’t blame any of our feathered friends for hiding and taking cover in a warm spot.

Some of the images with the beast

As stated before, it was cold, very cold and the wildlife we saw was few and far between. There was a buzzard or bird of prey but he was very high and although I did capture a few images they were very small so once cropped they became a little spoiled and not really worth sharing.

The experience was however worth it, remembering I do not normally take images of birds in general but it is something I would now like to do more often so watch this space.
