    Thanks - I use a Nikon D7000 (which is getting on a bit now but still does the job), those photos are with an 18-105mm lens which is usually a bit too short for bird photos but those ones were friendly and let me get close enough.

    I have an 80-200mm and a 400mm for things a bit further away but I don't usually take them too far into the hills because of the extra weight and bulk on multiday trips.

    Here is a whole album of my bird photos to browse through if you're interested: https://flic.kr/s/aHsjXCA3Hb
