Donna Nook

A trip to to see the seals, also did not produce the images I was after provided an opertunity to stock up on images.

Little Grebe

Although not the target subject I wanted to photograph this day, I finally got some good shots of Little Grebe. The light was good and the water was clear providing me with some good reflections which works really well.

Martin Project

I have been doing work with Sand Martins. Here is one of the shots I like. More to follow as on going project

Barn Owl - the chase

Allot of effort for a few shots, after driving round for an hour this evening in a spot I know that's good for owls, which i have done for the past few weeks I finally got shots of this owl. a very pale bird but still great to see. After these shots the owl flew out of sight, i quick dash to the car and a drove up the road found the owl sitting on the road side edge. After spinning the car around and upsetting a few drivers I managed to get in position. by the time i had stopped the owl again took off back to the field I photographed it in and not to been seen again this eve. I will be back for more

Watevoles

These great little animals, extinct in some county's can still be found abundant in only a few areas.

Kestrel

On Tuesday I went to try for the sand martins again but they seemed a bit flighty. Only to find a kestrel sitting on top of the face were the sand martins nest gave me a good opportunity to get some different shots of this bird.

I love the sandy colour background and the detail in the stones and soils

Sand Martins and a CRAP END to what was a good day!

What was a good start to the day with some great shots of razor bill mating and other head shots, me and a Friend headed off to do sand martin shown . Unfortunately came to a tragic end for me with a CD jamming in my MAC and also a corrupted card losing the razors mating leaving me Really annoyed .

Bempton cliffs

Yesterday my 7D arrived and off to the coast i went, to find a fantastic day ahead. Gannets collecting grass on the cliff tops provided me a opportunity to put the camera through its paces. A

After much debate regards the sharpness of this camera I can honestly say this camera delivered. I was a bit concerned not taking my D1 MKII so if this camera did not perform I was missing some great shots.

the camera locked on and stayed locked and they are super sharp.

Also i have been photographing Fox cubs and hedgehogs photos to follow soon

A day at potterick carr

This shot i love, shows the bird inflight dragging its feet across the ice. A good day but only a few good shots to show.

Yesterday my image and story of the back-headed gull went national hitting some of the UK's biggest papers, which included the SUN, DAILY MAIL. Today I spent all day photographing Pike, a hard fish to find let alone photography
