An incredibly peaceful early morning encounter with this buck. He almost came too close, then nibbled some shoots, and moved on. Always amazes me how many flies and bugs hang around wild animals.

I love that chuck chuck noise.

Standard. Did get a lifer today though

No way...... I missed this. Please linger

This photograph captures Sir David Attenborough seated outdoors on the rugged terrain of Skomer Island. Behind him, the ocean and coastal cliffs form a scenic backdrop under a clear sky. Sir David, dressed in a khaki jacket and light trousers, looks towards the camera with a gentle expression, exuding a sense of warmth, calm, and wisdom. Around him, puffins can be seen flying and perched on the rocky ground, illuminated in rays of golden sunlight as the sun sets behind the cliffs.

Happy 99th birthday to the man who gave voice to the wild. 🎉

Sir David Attenborough, thank you for a lifetime dedicated to the natural world, and for sharing its story with wisdom, wonder, and grace.

You've inspired generations to fall in love with nature.

Beautiful Mike

Well let me know when you want to do a twitch in my bit of Stuttgart!

Dakar too, that would be a lot of fun!

First one for me yesterday over the LORP at Budleigh Salterton, Devon.

🚨 620,000 songbirds were illegally trapped and killed in Cyprus in autumn 2024 alone.

A new report by @birdlifecyprus.bsky.social reveals mist net trapping is on the rise in the Republic of Cyprus, driven by organised trappers.

Action is needed now.

Such smart gulls

I dunno, I love both I'll be honest. I've ridden all over and raced at a very good level, and messed about for the joy of it. Sometimes a good road and the right car is simply brilliant.

Chiffchaffers unite!

Best laid plans went massively t1ts up today, still when life gives lemons, make lemonade. Gorgeous birds the little egret. #olympus #om1 #mzuiko300mmf4 #photography #wildlifephotographer #wildlifephotography #photoshoot #devon #devonife #devonbirds #omsolutions #autumn #birdphotography #littleegret

Ha that's pretty funny. Both spikey and hard to handle at times

Brilliant rail action. That scoter easy to get? Seems to have settled there?

Finally caught up with one of the white-tailed eagle that occasionally pops by the River Exe, distant and cropped but a lifer! 202sp for Devon..... What a bloody awesome bird. Lots of grumpy corvids. #devonbirds #whitetailedeagle

Ah this explains why not eagle spotting!

Two professionals making great art

👌

Such a great photo
