        Well, I'm not shure of anything, but from all the discriptions and
pictures (I haven't seen a photo yet) the olive wistler seems the best bet.
 Just seems puzzeling that it's in my garden.  There's no forest for a long
way round and a town seems the wrong sort of place for this bird.

        Yes, I have got some good shots hand held sometimes, but it's a bit 
touch
ang go.  I'v got this really old 300mm nikor lense with an F3, it ways a tone.
