Hi Tim, I have a FZ20 which has 'only' 5MP but find very good for snapping birds. Of course a X30 optic zoom would be ideal or perhaps we can educate the...
Hi Tim & Bob, If you want to work a photo, brightness,contrast,crop,enhance ect, you can't go past Arc Soft Photo Studio. It comes free with any Canon Scanner....

This is a reminder to let you know that this will be the second Thursday of this month, not the fist. (There is a game on at Suncorp Stadium on the 7th and...
Hi Carl There's lots of information in the Birding Aus archives, but basically John Young discovered some double-eyed fig parrots in southern Queensland /...
I have just placed Quiz 8 on the web site. Another tern taken in Brisbane this time. Look on http://www.birdsqueensland.org.au/ Please note that all the old...
Bit small perhaps. The camera does of course distort sizes but it looked to me like a bigger bird. However, with only two suggestions (one a Java Sparrow) and...
Thanks for the heads up. I hadn't heard anything about this fourth fig-parrot (yep, I'm a newbie to the forum) so I had a most enjoyable lunch hour scrolling...

Dear all, I have recently arrived in Townsville, where my partner got a position with CSIRO from South Africa, where I was actively involved in leading bird...
I started loosing my high frequency hearing some time ago and by now all I hear in the woods is Whipbirds and Sulphur-crested Cockatoos. I have lost even...
Hi Birders, I went down to the Lockyer Valley this weekend and saw a few birds. The best was Freckled Duck, which is still 'gracing' Apex Lake in Gatton. It...
Hi all, Rather embarrassingly, I've just downloaded a bunch of Whiskered Tern photos that I took at a farm dam between Lakes Clarendon and Atkinson and noticed...
Hi Tim, Did you get any reply to the hearing gear, nothing was on the forum. I am in the same boat (family failing.) The other thing, Arc Soft program that...
It is obvious that as a species we bird-watchers are very narrow-sighted. I have just heard that there is a major "Musical Event" (Robbie Williams) planned...

The question truned out to be moot - Corel's site only offers Paint Shop Pro XI now (200 MB download)). So I brought a box copy from Harvey Norman (the price I...
Hi Tim, I do not have the PSPX1 as Fran said it gave her all sorts of trouble and I backed off it. It depends how naughty a Irishman you are and go to a crack...
