Missing Christmas? Already February but this fellow at Gonville and Caius still has not shed his Christmas hat. #gonvilleandcaius #keyes #cambridge #cambridgearchitecture #streetphotography

Cambridge Scene. Beyond the architectural landscape of the Cambridge colleges lie residences and bridges crossing railway tracks. #architecture #mural #streetphotography #cambridge #rooftops

Cambridge Scene with and without Jarring Jackets. A view from St John’s college Bridge of Sighs takes one back in time until a group of construction workers walk past, smashing the illusion. #cambridge #stjohnscollege #streetphotography #winter #architecture

Cambridge Chairs. Two different places, two weeks apart. Admittedly self-indulgent photos but is is hard to resist the patterns these stackable chairs make. #abstractphotography #patterns #cambridge

Rowers in London. Carrying the boat back to the boat house seems to require almost as much effort as the actual rowing. #hammersmith #london #rowing #urbansports #streetphotography

Cambridge Detail. Cambridge is full of grand buildings of course, but some of the alleys are just as interesting. #cambridge #urbandetail #architecture #blue

London Abstract. Light points the way under the Hammersmith bridge. #abstractphotography #london #hammersmith #bridge

Little Egret foot. As this egret moves slowly through the water we can see this bird’s large yellow claw just under the surface. #egret #birds #cambridge #urbanwildlife

Congratulations, well done. I know from friends this is not easy.

Gorgeous! Must get to London to meet him.

Success. A little egret plucks a fish out of the water as easily as we pluck an apple. However the fish are very small and this gesture needs to be repeated again and again to sate this bird’s hunger. #birds #fish #urbanwildlife #cambridge #egret #birdbehavior

So Itchy. A little egret scratching an itch gives us a view of its impressive yellow feet. #urbanwildlife #egret #cambridge #birds #birdbehavior

Beautiful

Egret Fishing #egret #cambridge #england #urbanwildlife #birds

Mysterious Waters. A little egret fishing next to some reeds finds itself in abstract waters. #cambridge #urbanwildlife #egret #birds

Mirrored Egret. While fishing in Hobson’s conduit, this little egret got reflective. #egret #birds #urbanwildlife #cambridge

Little Egret Fishing. A lovely little egret was catching a lot of small fish for lunch in Hobson’s conduit. I could not see any fish, but this certainly could. #egret #birds #urbanwildlife #cambridge

Heel mooi! Waar in Nederlandwas dit?

Kingfisher in the Shadows. I might have passed him without seeing him but for seeing him fly to this perch. These photos (400x) are not cropped. I felt surprised and lucky that it flew this close to me. #kingfisher #urbanwildlife #cambridge #birds

A Different Pose. Despite their vibrant colours, kingfishers are very good at hiding in the shadows. However when they do come out in the sun, they are hard to miss. #kingfisher #birds #cambridge #urbanwildlife

Before He Flew. The kingfisher finally took a brief moment to rest on a branch in the sun. What a piece of luck to see him there. #kingfisher #birds #cambridge #urbanwildlife

Sudden Evasion. The kingfisher at Hobson’s conduit suddenly flew off in a different direction and was not seen again that day by this photographer. It always feels like a great piece of luck to see him at all. #kingfisher #birds #cambridge #flight #urbanwildlife

London Contrast. Sober brick meets bold graphics on Goldhawk Road. #london #streetphotography #architecture

Same Car, Different Day. Though I am no fan of cars, this one caught my eye when I first saw it standing before the white wall. Now, when in London, I keep an eye out for it like one would look for a familiar face. #car #vintagecar #london #londonstreet #streetphotograohy

A Thirsty Squirrel, caught drinking at Hobson’s conduit. #cambridge #squirrel #urbanwildlife

Three Small Tits, one blue, one great, one coal. All spotted from the footpath along Hobson’s conduit. #cambridge #urbanwildlife #bluetit #coaltit #birds #greattit

Dappled Egret. While fishing this little egret walked in and out of the sun, showing off its skill and beauty. #birds #egret #littleegret #urbanwildlife #cambridge #hobsonsconduit

Little Egret Glowing. The weather was cold but the sun was warm. #cambridge #urbanwildlife #birds #littleegret #egret
