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.

The photographs of them as they fly over my house are still not what I want as they are too high and lack any detail.

Crane migration photographs for me this year has been rubbish.
I seem to have missed the few opportunities this year to get a good shot,
always been out doing something else.
I have seen them flying very low over my house in the past, but not been able to photograph them.
