I'm thrilled, I saw my first ever Ring Ouzel late this afternoon! 😀😍
It's amazing that this beauty turned up at RSPB Ham Wall in Somerset, as they usually only stop off on migration on high ground, such as The Mendip Hills.🐦
It put on a great show as it feasted on berries! 😍

Encouraging news on the journey toward the White-tailed Eagle’s recovery in England. Excellent work by various folks to get to this point, especially Roy Dennis Wildlife Foundation & Forestry England.

This Prom began as wish.

It’s been an incredible journey - one that led me (eventually!) to the @royalalberthall.bsky.social with London Contemporary Orchestra and Robert Ames, where we performed all three albums from start to finish.

Exciting news from Woodberry Wetlands!

Earlier this week a pair of avocets were spotted wading in the shallows of the reservoir - a first for the wetlands

The only other sighting we've had before this was a brief flyover - nearly 10 years ago!

Here is the moment the first live cam chick fledged!

Now, this year's chicks are honing their flying skills and preparing to migrate soon.

Rewilding isn't only about saving nature, but re-filling the world with beauty and loveliness.

We just need to allow it happen.

Great few hours birding at Normandy Marsh, Hampshire last week.

Stunning views of Curlew Sandpiper and Little Stint. Also Eider, Whimbrel, Bar-tailed Godwit, and great to see so many Avocet chicks! 🤩

A peaceful moment from the Norfolk coast — Cley Mill standing tall in the morning light. I loved capturing the subtle play of color and atmosphere in this timeless landscape.

A dandelion's seed head, with its fine, fibrous bristles, acts as a diffraction grating, causing the pastel coloration seen in the seed head.

The first osprey egg of the season was laid at #LochArkaig PIne Forest earlier this evening! 🥚

You can just see it if you look closely at this pic.

True to form, proud Dad Louis was soon sitting on it!
