On my walk to the station today….. isn’t it amazing that if left, nature is able to regain its place.❤️

A great start to 2026!
FIELD GUIDE TO THE SNAKES OF MALAWI has just been launched by our publisher.
An enormous amount of work has gone into this book, and there have been moments when it felt that there were just not enough hours in the day. We're so proud of this second book in the series

I found a lovely quiet spot in the local graveyard to sit and contemplate.
It’s always nice to escape for a short while with one’s own thoughts.

So what will 2026 hold for you?

I don’t normally post photos but watching these sheep cross a field in a straight line just had to be shared.
They were obviously heading somewhere?

If one image encapsulates the closeness of species on this planet it’s this one.
It changed the way I thought about all other living creatures. We are not superior, we just abandoned coexistence on this planet for advances in technology.
Please take a moment to look at this image and think!

Sat in a coffee shop in Cambridge contemplating if I was making a difference to this planet in any way….
Then I saw a man at the table next me. Guess we all need to feel we are making a difference. 🙏🏻

The first two days of this week have been extremely difficult ….but I’ve started using a colouring book to manage my stress and anxiety.

Snakes of Eswatini hit shops last week, so we are now concentrating our efforts on the second book in the Nguni Series.
SNAKES OF MALAWI contains 67 species, all beautifully presented with detailed descriptions, stunning photographs, and accurate distribution maps.
Publication expected in 2026.

Sarah and I are so delighted with the cover of our first book published by Pelagic Publishing.
This is the first book ever written solely on the snakes of Eswatini (Swaziland).
