I notice we are neighbours so to speak as I am in North Devon and I visit the Avalon Marshes as often as I can especially Shapwick Heath and Ham Wall as both are a target rich environment.

PS. Not sure about the 'Junior' as I havn't fitted that description for about 40 years unless its because I've just registered!!

I also do a great deal of natural history why wouldnt we living in the best bit of the UK lol
and although I dont have a 500mm lens I always use at least a mono pod on any thing greater than 200mm
I have a bean bag in the shape of a frog it doubles up as a prop for child portraits
Dont worry about the junior tag it goes at 30 post whats worse is you become a senior at 100 dread to think whats next
