Cheers matie, I went every day for the last week and a half, missed them could hear them getting fed in the upper branches but in a difficult place to get into..never mind, Ive got quite a few of them now to be playing on with when the winter nights come in..

  5. Were feeding chicks in the nest, but they have fliggied now.
  6. Good images matie, very difficult at times to take pictures of birds against the sky..they can easily come out as silohettes, and to have as much detail in them, you have done really well..for these shots I always switch from matrix metering to either spot or centre weighted..if I get time and remember I usually use a smaller apature too, something like f11 reduce the in camera sharpening too, if you have this too high you will get a halo around the bird on this type of shot before you get a chance to do anything with it in photoshop.. Not a buzzard

  11. any thoughts on the 2nd cross, the 3/4 grey an also the 3/4 deerhound Not done much with these matie, but Im sure there are some on here that will have more experience and views and who you will find eager to help
  12. Its not just the height..its the weight also, on average, across the board, Doxhope frist crossers were smaller and lighter framed than other similar crosses. But dont forget, the Doxhope line was primarily a bitch line, with both the first crossers and pure breds, some lines are like this, purposely bred that way, for example with the Roslyn line of deerhounds from Northern Ireland, where the Doxhope quality in bitches originated from..Brian Doaks Roslyn kennels in the 90`s oozed quality, in his bitches, Brian never coursed himself, but many Roslyn stock were noted for their coursing abili
  13. iv got a 8 month old bitch doxhope, will let you know in another year or so! Not a giant but at just under 25 inch at the moment should be a usefull size bitch. im sure ive read they are a bit smaller & racier than most deerhound x's yeahh, thats right
  14. that pics on google images Hope so, cos someone will be owing me some money
  15. When the goldfinch is in the moult the last part of it to moult out is the blaze,the orange you see in the blaze of the goldfinch in the first photo is due to the fact that the bird has not fully finished the moult, they start to moult in august and sometimes it can be October before they fully finish. If you look at the second photo you will see the goldfinch in that photo was snapped in early summer because it is in full breeding condition, a crimson red blaze, no black tip on its beak and the feather quality is tip top unlike the bird in the first photo. Hope this helps. That shoul
