Holiday!

Got a week off next week, yippee! Am I going to some far-flung exotic location? Nope. Am I travelling across the country to the wilds of Scotland? Nope! Next week I’m keeping it local – I’m staying at home! Not very exciting? Well quite the opposite actually – I get to spend time in the locations that I know and love, and hopefully get some great shots!

I’ve got a lot planned for next week, including a few trips up to North Norfolk, one of my favourite places, and I’m also planning a few visits to some very local locations – my local nature reserve and even the footpaths around my home. So – watch this space for regular updates!  Now I’m just crossing my fingers for some decent weather….

    Sometimes you can try too hard. My lovely boss let me have the day off (thanks!) and to make the most of every minute, and hoping to avoid other photographers, I was out at first light – first car in the car park.  Nothing doing. Retracing my steps up and down the rivers, still nothing….

    I’ve not had very much chance to get out with the camera of late, and this weekend wasn’t much better either! With the dull weather I decided to do some work in the garden, and as I was sowing some seeds all the Woodpigeons in the hedgerow scattered, and the small birds dived for cover….

    A Barn Owl! Firstly my apologies for my lack of posting of late, I am still here, honest! Not had any time to get out with the camera unfortunately, but I have just discovered that the pair of Barn Owls at my favourite local nature reserve –  Redgrave and Lopham Fen – now have a…

  • Turtle Dove

    What a privilege to have this bird visiting the garden. He was still around this weekend, and really feeding up before his long flight south. The slightly better weather meant I could get some more photos, although I’m yet to catch him in the sun. It’s not going to be long before he departs, but…

  • New kids on the block

    It’s that time of year when you might start seeing some strange new birds in your garden. Newly fledged youngsters often look very different from their parents. This baby Starling for example looks totally unrelated to the dark, glossy, iridescent adult birds. Yet they fly together in formation, adults leading their offspring to the feeder…
