Time stood still.
One of many images I managed to get in a quick encounter. During the months of planning I’d pictured several shots in my mind, but hadn’t considered this side profile.

The Iberian lynx, what an incredible animal.

Short eared owl from last year.
There doesn’t seem to have been the same influx as previous years, no luck so far this winter 🦉

Kestrel coming through at speed

I had to use a high shutter speed to ensure the kestrel remained sharp.

001 - a real day in the life of a wildlife photographer.

Posting no matter how successful, or unsuccessful I am in my quest for barn owl, short eared owl & more, so pressure is on…

A trip to RSPB Wallasea Island, Essex.
See how I get on 🤞

Earlier this week I headed up to Norfolk and filmed another ‘real day in the life of a wildlife photographer’
It was a successful outing! 🦭

I’m a bit late to the blue sky party, forgive me!

No better place to start than a Robin in the frost.

The red breast of the robin stands out against the frost on a very cold, early morning.
