Feeling like I walked straight into Narnia at sunset today! The peace, beauty and silence snow brings is just magical! Watching a Goldcrest flit around beneath the trees to bathe in the snow was just an added bonus! πŸ₯°

Not the best photo but delighted to have finally seen the Great Northern Diver (Gavia immer) that’s been visiting the harbour this winter. Well worth the early start leading to numb fingers and toes! πŸ₯Ά

β€œPicks up Collins book” to realise they come in 5 shades! Everyday is a school day, Northern now on my bucket list too! Just when I thought they couldn’t get any cuter, superb find and wonderfully captured.

After recently capturing this pair of gannets with their egg, I was concerned about their success and survival. This paper gives me hope that they’ve all made it! 😊

It’s always difficult, I think, to do a post out of the blue where you just come straight out and say β€œBUY MY BOOK HERE LOOK HERE IT IS” without any preamble, but sometimes you just have to take a deep breath and do it.

Wow that’s very interesting thank you. These ones were all closed, mostly brown but also some green beside them, so I’m not sure which of the two it was going for as I only questioned it when I got home and looked at the photos.
