Some good results there. Well done. Should I upgrade to Agfa? I find these glass slides a bit of a pain now and when I put my head under the cloth the birds often bugger off before I can focus properly!

Very rewarding - I don't know yet but I might have another 20-30 to go from Oman - all seen in Muscat. It's a great winter birding location

What a nice collection of gulls

Ditto. Muscat looks a good site for a few days away.

Very much like the second Black-Headed Gull picture - and the Pallas' is a cool-looking gull.
