Welcome to my world! Through this website, I hope to share a bit of the passion I have for wildlife and, in particular, birds with you! I have been described as fanatical, crazy and downright stupid when it comes to my escapes in the field, but there can be no bigger adrenaline rush than eventually getting to see some creature that you have only have dreamt of seeing in the past. There are still so many things I have to get to see in my lifetime and that, in itself, is an integral part of what keeps the passion alive! This website is really just a collection of some of the photos I have managed to get. I consider myself to be a birder / wildlife enthusiast who takes photographs as opposed to a bird or wildlife photographer, but really just enjoy getting the odd shot to remind me of some of the wonderful things I have been able to see. I still have a lot to learn about the art of wildlife photography as some of the photos on this site will show you!! Sometimes I even battle to find the subject in the viewfinder... |

Although I am not
a particularly good
photographer, I have been fortunate to have managed to get a few shots published in various books and
magazines. As is normally the case, copyright of any photo on this site (unless
otherwise stated) remains with me. If anybody would like to use any of the
photos present on this site, please
contact me and let me know what you would like
to use them for so that I can consider your request. High resolution images of
all photos shown on this site (and many more that are not present) are available
for sale for commercial publications and websites. I am also happy to allow use
of my photos for any cause that I deem worthy, in particular non-profit
conservation bodies. Other than birds, this website also includes photos of many of the other creatures that I enjoy looking for like mammals, reptiles, frogs and dragonflies. The great thing about having these additional interests is that if I am out and the birding is a little slow, I can always turn my attention to one of these other groups, so I never get bored and there is ALWAYS something new to see! |

If you happen to find any errors on the site,
whether it be with identifications, subspecies allocations, labels for
gender, age, etc., please be so kind as to let me know. I would like this
site to be as accurate as possible but, occasionally, errors will slip
through... I will be adding to the site on
a continual basis both with new species as well as updating photos when I
manage to get a better shot (there are many photos that definitely require
improvement!), but for those of you that are keen to see where things
are at the moment, please click on the links in the left margin. |
