Long Tailed Tits






Visit to Waters Edge this morning, loads of these cute little things! They were quite happy to pose!

Chris Packham




Great night in Lincoln with Chris Packham. A great venue too! Chris came across as a very regular guy and his show was both informative and funny.

Little Owl




A great new years day! We visited a colleague who runs an owl/bird of prey rescue. Little Owls are one of our faves and after only seeing brief glimpses in the wild it was a privelege to handle one. They are such endearing and cute birds!Im still smiling!!

Barn Owls




Another pair of residents at the rescue centre. Difficult to photo as not very sociable and we didnt want to use flash and stress them.
