Hello and welcome

 

  I have always had a keen interest in wildlife and the great outdoors;

  I was an Angler for over 30 years but gave it up a few years ago to       

  concentrate on photographing wildlife. I  lived in Runcorn; Cheshire a

  short distance from the M56 that gave me great access to the Wirral,

  Northwales and Lancashire, with some great countryside on my doorstep

  I didn't have to travel too far in search of wildlife and photographic

  opportunities.

  Some of my wildlife photographs range from as far afield as Cuba,

  Antigua, Saint Martin, Saint Lucia, Dominican Republic,  Tuscany ,

  Corfu, Turkey, Spain, Portugal.

 

 

 

I now live in the Charente area of western France.

Down at the bird hide

October 06, 2020

Summer seems to be over and it's time to make some alterations to the bird feeding station.

IMG_0868IMG_0868 Not a traditional bird hide but it has all the mod cons and just had a Satellite dish installed.

You need to be comfortable if you are spending long hours in a bird hide (5 Berth caravan) its better than wooden one.
