I've recently been revisiting some old photos on my hard drive I took a short while ago, and unfortunately neglected (like this page) for to long - there's new imagery to come!

The Red Squirrel is one of my absolute favourite animals so to see them in the wild during one of my favourite seasons was amazing! How great would it be to see these guys, the native species, re-introduced across the UK?!

Nothing says 'Hello May' like Canada Goose Goslings running at you to say hi! Resisted the temptation to snaffle one into my pocket!

Surely there isn't much else cuter than a duckling?
I could sit and watch these little guys all day long. I do feel rather spoilt with sightings recently, which also includes the appearance of a very vocal Nightingale, a photo of which will follow over the coming days.

Wow - It's been a little while since I last posted! My apologies!
I have spent some time travelling around the UK recently, but I am back now and ready to show some recent imagery I have taken during the last days of Spring. I hope you like them!

I have spent many days recently spotting wildlife in the Spring sunshine, in a variety of locations, from my home town of Petworth in West Sussex, right up to York! I was lucky enough recently to see the courtship of two mute swans – both beautiful and noisy!

Tasha and James were married at at the White Swan in Arundel, a venue very close to me, and one I visit often.
The ceremony took place in the Arundel Suite, and was an intimate occasion with close friends and family.
With three children of their own and many others due to arrive, I knew Tasha and James were going to have a relaxed and fun afternoon to come!
Following the ceremony, delicious canapes were on offer for the guests to be enjoyed in the glorious sunny afternoon.
We got all of the group photos involving the children out of the way in quick time, so they could run off and enjoy the bouncy castle - much to the jealously of some of the adults!
Dinner was served in the Sussex Rooms, with a variety of foods on offer, followed by a trio of desserts all prior to the guests returning outside to enjoy the rest of the summer sunshine before the evening reception started off, and yes some of the adults were lucky enough to get on the bouncy castle before it was taken down.
A lovely day to be involved in, and many congratulations to the new Mr and Mrs Underwood.
