We had an advert over here for a chocolate finger biscuit called "Kitkat" A man was sitting patiently for hours beside his tripod waiting for Pandas to come out of their hide, eventually he turned away to sip tea and eat one of the kitkats, behind him the pandas were dancing together, he finished his tea and turned round back to his camera, to the same scene as before. it was typical of your birds comings and goings.lol

Bret has pictures. It's his little tent, set up where the wild life hangs out, that has an opening for his camera and a bar (I think).
