From coming back with a few holiday snaps with a 3 megapixel compact digital to this, my first delivery to a National Trust Gift shop. Proud? Yes. But I've also enjoyed every moment, even the long, mind numbingly boring, freezing with no show ones....

Wonderful surprise to see juvenile white tailed eagle at @ElmleyNNR this afternoon. Being given a very hard time by the marsh harriers that did not appreciate it so close to their roost.

Before a murmuration Starlings often perch up together. The first few seconds speeds up 7 minutes of the birds arriving, and then they fly off in real time. Note how the branches droop and then spring up when the birds fly. Higher quality video here: vimeo.com/793688729

‘The First Woodcock of Winter’. I drew this a few weeks ago but wasn’t sure about it at the time. Oddly enough, just a few days later I accidentally disturbed my first Woodcock of the season very close to this spot.
