kestrel

It's only once in a blue moon i pop back here nowadays . . . & that's just to goosey gander at what y'all are togging at lately. Gotta say, well impressed by all the 'old crew', & with that...you specific guys know who you all are with that i hope... you're making some stunning images ..some great new talent here too!

So aside from the unchanging snooty ultra minority that still unfortunately dwells here, i reckon this tog forum is doing well tops these days & Shaggy is continuing to perform his stellar duties just as he always did.

post #1 - wise words from Shaggy . . . ..(especially the first bit )

Apologies. Something strange happened and the final page of posts didn't load so I corrected the Bulbul ID and ID'd the Cuckooshrike without seeing that Kestrel had already done so.

no probs Ajarn . . . so long as we pointed him/them in the right direction is all that matters.

regards . . . Goshawk kestrel

Some more from this morning:

Racket-tailed Treepie (Note the blue eye)

Red-whiskered Bulbul

you got the first MH . . . the second is actually a (sub species of) Black-crested Bulbul - Pycnonotus flaviventris johnsoni

Thanks for the ID. Here's another for you:

Black-winged Cuckooshrike ..

^ 2nd pic . . . nice home made star tracker. i remember building one very similar nearly 30yrs ago.

I've brought an old PS3 from England to Thailand. I want to sell it, what's the going rate for second hand PS3's here? Also got GTA5, Last of Us & a few other games to sell too.

On the 4th question . . . check out Serge Ramelli on YouTube.

He's established, capable, popular & pretty much the best LR & PS guy offering quality video tutorials on the web.

Ken Wheeler - "The angry photographer" does videos daily he also has a website under construction (may or may not come to fruition).

yep . . best (Nikon) dude on YT bar none. Also PhotoRec Toby is cool too, as is Tony Northrup (although he does come over a bit snooty at times, but he's generally ok)
