I’m a wildlife photographer in my spare time, chasing nature’s beauty through my lens. Ironically, the most incredible moments happen when my camera is at home, reminding me why I love what I do linkbio.co/6120508MJ6KnY

St. Nectan’s Glen
Yes, our feet were absolutely freezing wading into the stream to capture this, but I’d do it again in a heartbeat. One of Cornwall’s hidden treasures. 😍

St. Nectan’s Glen

Tucked away in the Cornish woodland, this magical waterfall feels like stepping into another world. The walk here is rugged and wild, but when you arrive it’s pure serenity, mossy rocks, rushing water, and an energy that feels almost spiritual. 💧🌿

Caught in the golden hour glow! This garden spider was busy wrapping up its catch when we spotted it, the sunlight turning its web into shimmering threads of rainbow. Nature’s tiny dramas are everywhere if you stop and look. 🌿📸

Nature’s drama up close! Caught this moment of a garden spider enjoying an unexpected dinner guest, a ladybird. Fascinating to watch how intricate (and ruthless!) the web of life really is.

📸 Loving these little glimpses of the natural world that often go unnoticed until you look closer.

Spotted: the iconic fly agaric 🍄✨ Nestled on a mossy stump, this little woodland gem is straight out of a fairytale. Nature really knows how to dress for autumn!

tender moment on the water 💚
This coot was busy feeding its hungry chick at Bushy Park – such a sweet reminder of how much care and effort goes into raising the next generation. 🪶✨

Eyes wide, fish caught… now what? 👀🐟
This heron’s expression is everything, mealtime suspense at its best!

Bushy Park Mornings never disappoint 🦌💛
This red deer was completely absorbed in her dinner until she realised I was watching… first the ‘caught in the act’ look, then the sweet pose pretending nothing happened. Nature always has a way of making me smile! ☺️

Bobby the Robin is loving his new life in the garden 💚
He spends his days exploring, & hanging out with the house sparrows.
Whenever I step outside, he flies straight to me, always hopeful for a few mealworms.
Watching him grow in confidence and settle into the wild has been such a joy 💛

The first photo was taken on the day Bobby came into my care, tiny, scruffy, and just out of the nest.

The second photo shows the moment I released him back to the wild healthy and ready to take on the world

Raising Bobby was a real privilege

Fresh out the pupa! 🐞
This Seven-spot Ladybird (Coccinella septempunctata) is just emerging into adult life... soft, spotty, and not quite ready to fly.
Nature’s magic, right before our eyes. ✨🌿

A striking Gasteruption jaculator, a parasitic wasp with serious style!
It lays its eggs into the nests of solitary bees, using that long ovipositor to reach deep inside. The larva then feeds on the bee larva and its food store, a fascinating, if slightly gruesome, part of nature’s balance.

🧡 Red squirrel cuteness from Brownsea Island! 🐿️
I could watch these little acrobats for hours. From nibbling snacks to darting up tree trunks. They’re absolute naturals in front of the camera. Their ear tufts and fluffy tails make them unmistakably charming.

These damselflies came together to form a beautiful near-heart shape, a perfect example of the stunning symmetry and shapes found in the natural world. 💙💚

Same here... Couldn't believe my luck when it landed amongst the fluff and kindly sat long enough for me to get some photos 😂

While exploring Brownsea Island, I came across this beautiful Speckled Wood butterfly resting amongst a cloud of grass seed fluff. The soft textures and dappled light created the most magical little woodland moment, one that felt almost dreamlike. 🦋

Meet the master of disguise – the crab spider!

Crab spiders don’t spin webs to catch prey, they lie in wait, blending in with their surroundings until the perfect moment strikes. This one was a real joy to photograph, especially with such intricate textures in both the spider and the flower.

Just when you thought spring couldn’t get any cuter… along come the baby mandarins! 🧡
Should be called Satsumas small, round, and ridiculously sweet 😂🍊
Spotted these fluffballs exploring the daisies and couldn’t resist capturing the moment 💛

Four frames, one incredible subject, a dragonfly in full flight.
Did you know dragonflies control each of their four wings independently? It gives them the agility of a helicopter, but also makes them extremely hard to photograph mid-air.

Swipe to see this aerial acrobat in action.

This gorgeous green woodpecker posed perfectly on a post at Bushy Park.
Love the contrast of that bold red crown against the soft greens, such a characterful bird!
