If I recall correctly, Bob, you carry a camera with a long lens mounted
on a tripod.
Regards, Laurie.
PS, I don't think your lip operation would affect your capacity to
mimic a Black-breasted Arkkk Bird.

A few notes on the responses to my "Attracting bird with calls"
posting:
Nevil: I missed that one. Good point. And, as I have vowed not to go
to sea again, I would like to see the practice stopped.
Ricki: Since I had the operation on my lip a few years ago to remove a
dysplastic spot I haven't been able to whistle or pish properly so I
think that practice should be banned as well.
Bob G.: I understand what you are saying and I expect you to now only
use your recordings for that purpose.
Mike S.: I hardly think that copying a set of bird calls onto a more
convenient medium just so that it is easier to call birds in could be
call 'fair' and 'for the purposes of study or research'.
Steve C.: ETHICS! Don't get me started!
Laurie: The subject of my posting was whether there is a difference
between playing recordings or personally imitating the call or
pishing. Possible predation as a result of any of these activities was
included to evoke emotion in the reader.
Carl C.: I prefer to go birding by myself because I am a common
garden-type misanthrope.
Now........... did I say what MY personal feelings are on this topic?
No, I didn't.
And if anyone wants to find out what I do when I go birding, then,
they will have to go with me.
But see above.
Cheers
Bob Inglis
