Lovely to share the joy of photographing Crested tits with a couple of friends today. We were gifted some beautiful conditions, both with the light and a generous covering of the white stuff, also thanks to the Cresties for being so obliging (as always!).

Apologies for the radio silence. It's been quite the back end to the year. My dear Mum (94) passed away, we've moved home, had Christmas to deal with and all whilst we've all been struck by the lurgy. I'm delighted to report we're now in recovery. Wishing you all a very Happy and healthy New Year.

Morning new followers. #Otters take up a huge amount of my time, I’ve been studying and photographing them for well over a decade. My third book is called ‘The Secret Life of the Otter’ and is a hardback coffee table book. 🦦📷📙 Here’s a wee video of a recent encounter. Enjoy 😊

Jasper, the light of my life is nine months old today and is turning into a bookworm. By far his favourite book is ‘Skye the puffling’ he giggles through the whole book, a real joy to see. 😊
