Quick thread drift - only a Nikon 70-300 VR zoom to go with my Df for wildlife photos.
While in Northumberland in Sept I revisited Wallington (NT) specifically to watch red squirrels from a wildlife hide. Sue and I had been there many years ago (still had the LR 127" back then, so at least 16 years ago). We tied the hound up outside only expecting a quick visit, but there seemed to be dozens of squirrels to watch. Poor hound had to wait over an hour until we finally continued our walk.
Sadly, the latest visit did not reflect that and the one shot I did catch (with manual Nikon zoom) was just slightly out of focus. After 2-1/2 hours I left feeling a little sad, for the squirrels (and the missing company). Lots of birds on feeders.
Friends visited the next day and while they caught a brief glimpse of a squirrel, that was it.
