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.
Tweaks
My web site was down for most of the weekend due to an upgrade and it’s still not right.
I am not the only one who has had problems with it.

Friday Blues
It’s amazing the difference light makes to the colouration in the Kingfisher feathers.
The feathers reflect the light, light blue and lots of detail provide the best photographs.
Dark blue and lack the detail in low light are not so good.

Kingfisher coughing up a pellet
Kingfisher coughing up a pellet, got the shot this time.
Kingfishers are one of my favourite birds
If you can find them Kingfisher can be easy to photograph.
They will always investigate a new fishing branch if placed in the correct position.
Water Rail
Water Rail at Moore Nature Reserve put in a brief appearance before disappearing back into the reeds
Silver Y
Silver Y Moth was caught in my Moth trap last night, a common migrant that will fly day or night.
