  • Photo: European Shag

    Taken at the Farne Islands in May 2008. This marvellous place is a must if you want to get close to seabirds! The shag is superficially like the cormorant but is smaller and slimmer and has a lovely purple and green sheen to the feathers.

  • Photo: Get off my land!

    This Red deer took exception to me sitting on a trunk in his patch and came over to let me know I wasn't welcome - from about 6 feet away! Have to say i was a little nervous, but there was nowhere I could go without stepping out into the open so I just sat my ground. Luckily having voiced his opinion...

  • Photo: Golden Plover

    This was taken on the beach just past Sizewell, on a stroll from Minsmere RSPB reserve. These are normally seen later in winter in large flocks in southern England, but are usually hard to approach. In summer they adopt their spectacular breeding plumage and head North to breed.

  • Photo: Great spotted Woodpecker

    This one was taken from the hide at the Lodge, Sandy, RSPB headquarters. It was flying to and from the feeders while I was waiting to try to photograph crossbills coming to the pond. It was a bit further away than I'd have liked but I like the image anyway.

    This was taken at Hockley woods in Essex, one of their last UK strongholds. We were lucky on our visit and saw dozens on a lovely warm day.

  • Photo: I am the champion!

    This Red deer was rutting in Richmon park back in October 2010. He was certainly the boss in that neck of the woods.

  • Photo: Jay

    Taken at Maple lodge reserve, near Rickmansworth, Herts. This was taken from the hide in the entrance building. The jay landed in the trees some way off to check out the feeding station, but decided not to come closer.

  • Photo: Red Deer family Portrait

    This was taken on a misty morning in October in Richmond park. The Red deer were in full rutt and this Stag had been involved in some serious action just a short while before, seeing off a rival. But then he returned to his family for some quality time.

  • Photo: Swallow

    Taken at Minsmere RSPB reserve by the sluice. These were nesting under the sluice and had become accostomed to the regular passing birdwatchers.

  • Photo: Waxwing

    It's been an excellent winter for waxwing in the UK. They only come in any numbers every few years, when conditions in Scandinavia are too harsh for them. This year there have been thousands. These were feeding on rowan berries in a Retail car park in Leighton Buzzard.

  • Photo: Wryneck

    I have been trying to see one of these for years - they are very rare in the UK. This one turned up near Wendover on migration back to Africa and I was lucky enough to find it. I sat down to watch a few metres away and after feeding on ants for a few minutes it flew over and landed right by my feet....
