@david Wow such great photos! I've followed you on IG with my personal account (lizzyophoto). All those warblers are such amazing colours. I can spot some birds that I recognise but I think we have different names for them (e.g. I think our Goldcrest may be your Kinglet). I have some bird photos on my personal IG but it's not devoted entirely to birds, there's some campervan and dinner photos too!
We nearly have the same set-up although mine isn't quite as good as yours - I have a Canon 80D and the Sigma 150-600 Contemporary. I find it really difficult hand-holding that lens still!

Great interview @lizardillo! Congratulations! Love your work and hope your mentorship helps you reach your goals this year.

@ruth thanks Ruth. I had my first mentor session and I am trying to combine my assignment with this month’s Tiger prompt but finding it quite difficult. I hoping to work towards looking for an agent but that’s a far fetched dream at the minute.

@david I too am a birder and just started posting photos to an Instagram account last summer at ljdemott I’m going to follow you and @lizardillo — you have some great shots and I love seeing the birds from a different part of the world. Mine are a lot of eastern bluebirds which I’m a bit fanatic about.
