                        I had a long walk around Wareham Forest and Morden Bog, mainly to see how my heel would hold out over a few miles and it seemed ok. A beautiful sunny windless morning but only 1c.
                        Not a lot to see, Dartford Warblers were skulking in the Heather and out of view (just heard), couldn't find any Siskins but plenty of Reed Buntings, a Tree Creeper, Goldcrests and a very distant Peregrene.

                          Thank you Woo and Fern, still have the Panasonic fz 150 but the autofocus is very s l o w and sometimes miss shots although I am using manual a lot more rather than 'programmed'.
