Disclaimer :- I would not normally use bait to photograph wild birds although I do feed my garden birds. I had a pack of two out of date chicken breasts that were to be recycled in my waste bin but decided to use them to feed a family of Ravens. It was a one off event and they were taken within minutes.

      I had two chicken breasts each on a post the first was gone before I even had time to zip the hide back up I just seen it disappearing into the distance. The second went a few minutes later I shot in slow-motion otherwise the clip would have just been a few seconds long lol. The reeds were pretty obtrusive you have to get creative with your angles to get a clean shot 😀

    Great vid really liked your pics, I am going in a few weeks for the first time, could you advise me on what clothing to take, is there any particular part I must go to, will a 150-600mm and a 70-200mm be adequate or should I take different lenses???? I really appreciate any advice

    • @craignicoll001
      @craignicoll001 4 месяца назад

      Thank you glad you enjoyed my video 😀 Clothing will depend on the day l would definitely take a packable rain jacket as weather can easily change and good walking boots as paths can be rugged in parts. I personally would go with the 150-600mm as plenty of reach for smaller birds and Short Eared Owls if you’re lucky. Due to congestion they want you to walk around in an anticlockwise direction so you will pass all the good spots for Puffins such as the Wick and High Cliff but you will see plenty at North Haven as soon as you climb the steps after leaving the boat. I wouldn’t bother taking a tripod as very few places it could be used without getting in peoples way. Hopefully the weather will be kind and you have a great trip and come away with plenty of cracking images 😀
