Entries in the ‘Wildlife’

With the warming temperatures, lighter evenings and the morning dawns becoming earlier, Spring is upon us.  It’s my favourite time of year as the countryside is bursting with life.

Each time you enter nature you always learn something new, whether it be about the subjects behaviour or fieldcraft technic. You must always put the subjects welfare before any images you take. Remembering you are a guest in their world.

There is something so special seeing a wild Barn Owl quartering, hovering with moth like silence while hunting. Flying effortlessly on the wing in the half-light at dawn or dusk.

My images represent an event that occurred in the wild something that I witnessed and recorded with my camera.

The Peak District National Park is a popular breeding site for the Ring Ouzel. A beautiful bird that is part of the Thrush family; Turdus torquatus. In Britain they are of high conservation concern and are classified as Red Listed due to their population decline in the last forty years.

Following on from Mental Health Awareness week I’m going to be posting regular short films showing the beauty of nature.

The aim will be to help you feel connected to nature, which is so important for our mental health. #mentalhealth
