Greetings

Hi,
My name is John Stagg and I live in the South Somerset area. I am retired, after 25 years in the aircraft industry and 20 years as a partner in a small business. My main interest now is wildlife photography, especially mammals, birds, butterflies, dragonflies and British wild orchids. I am not an expert in any of these, so I am hoping to use the forums to expand my knowledge in these areas. I have been a member for a few months now, but have not contributed to the forums but my name should be coming up on some of them now.
Best wishes, John

Hi John and a warm welcome to you on behalf of the Staff and Moderators.

I'm sure you will enjoy it here. I'll look forward to reading about what you see when out and about and will hopefully see some of your pictures in the Gallery too. That orchid photo you posted is exquisite!
