Festive and New Years greetings to you all!

The holiday season has given me some time to update the galleries with some of my favourite images from 2011. Take a look at ‘Feather‘ and ‘Nature Close Up‘ .

In 2012 I’ll be working on expanding the ‘Fur’ gallery, and I have plenty of other projects in mind too.

Here’s one from this morning on the Fen.

A little on the quiet side today, though plenty of Rabbits, Squirrels and Robins around. The Tit flock seems to have expanded in numbers and the Treecreepers were still with them, but they continued to avoid the camera. The Kestrel put in a brief appearance, hunting then soaring away.

 I’m planning plenty of photography for 2012, and I hope I’ll be able to dedicate much more of my time to it than I did last year. You can of course keep up to date on my blog – watch this space!

Happy holidays to you all!

    Down at the bottom of the garden there’s a chirping coming from the hedge, but it’s not a bird, it’s a Dark bush-cricket. He suns himself on a plant pot, before boinging back off to the hedge.       (Click images to view larger…) If you like what you see, please consider sharing![social_share/]  …

    I was hoping for a Summer full of Turtle doves, but sightings have been few and far between. They are in real trouble, last years wet Summer meant a disastrous breeding season for them, and numbers are very low this year. Conservationists are concerned that this year could see the lowest numbers of Turtle doves…

    As I write, it’s cold and dark and the rain is dripping down the window. The grey damp chill of a British winter is a far cry away from the heat of the savannah, which is where I imagine our Turtle doves are currently enjoying hours of hot sunshine every day. They are spending the…

    Off to the Fen this morning, after all, how could I resist after last time! Unfortunately I didn’t see the Bittern today, he was probably tucked up in the reeds somewhere given that the temperature was -13 degrees. The Fen was really quiet and still, the only bird singing was a lone Reed bunting. The…

  • Sedge Warbler

    Out on the Fen again this morning, a lovely sunny start, but a little frosty too. Starting to get there with the Sedge Warbler’s I think. They seemed a little quiet, perhaps because of the Cuckoo calling close by. Walking through the dew, with birds singing all around, I came across a Roe deer buck,…

  • They’re back!

    Spring has finally sprung down on the Fen. As if someone has flicked a switch, the reedbed is full of birds singing. A Chiffchaff calls from the hedge, a tumble of notes come from an unseen Willow warbler, and the Reed buntings chirp out their simple song from the still frosty reeds. I suddenly hear…
