Far from hibernating, I’ve been out enjoying a diverse winter of wonder – photographing wildlife and working with schools, community groups and the future faces of conservation. In January I lead a photography training day for Wildlife Skills trainees from Devon, Dorset, Somerset & Wiltshire Wildlife Trusts.

Each night the starling spectacular plays out a different performance – sometimes with a sunset backdrop, other times the waterfall whoosh as the birds fall into the reeds. But last night and last week, with groups from PTES we placed ourselves […]

A moving drama, the sight and sound of a million-strong starling murmuration above your heads is one of UK’s most incredible wild spectaculars. The sudden darkened skies, continually morphing shapes and sheer mass create a visual extravaganza. But the soundscape is beautiful too – a million soft and soothing wingbeats overhead, the waterfall whoosh as […]
