Starting from number eleven there are five new photographs on the Photo Page.
Keep checking the adds. It does help.

Haven’t really got a lot to tell for today. I had hoped a few of you may have had a few different regional Chicken words. Although the Forum has been very quite.
I did send the new camera to Peter in Indian River Bay Delaware today, so that next year we can get a really good Osprey Nest webcam from the USA. I have sent a pan, tilt and 18x zoom camera. As the nest is lower than the top of Peters house and only at the most a 150 feet the camera will look right into every part of the nest. Peter tells me that there are a lot of other wildlife in the vicinity. Including the Bold and Brown Eagles. We hope to have the new camera working by September.
And just to tease. When I finish the Diary I will be putting together the camera for the new webcam that I am having to keep secret.
I have been trying to get the secret webcam going for a while and have sent a few emails to possible people in the location. I have now been contacted by another person about the secret webcam in a slightly different location. There is also in the location a White Tailed Eagle that does at times nest.
