Hudsonian Whimbrel

Cracking views of the very confiding Hudsonian Whimbrel at Perranuthnoe on Saturday morning, well worth the scramble across the rocks to get to it. It seems to have a problem with its left leg though. Not seen the red mark on previous shots

Manx Shearwaters over a stormy sea, Cornwall, UK.

On bright stormy days i head down to Pendeen, low down on the cliff to photo seabirds as they pass close by. These two Manx Shearwaters were amongst the hundreds of birds passing this day. Lightly sharpened and cropped in Photoshop.

Cold Snake

I found this grass snake in an icy river in cornwall. I decided as it was getting colder that I would move him to the warmer riverbank. On later inspection he was sliding into a hole.

Relaxing in the sun

Mid March during a short period of good weather in the north-Cornwall town of St. Ives, these little creatures delighted birders and non-birders alike scurrying about just above the shore.

Tried again today - better light so I can't use that as an excuse this time. They are just so unbelievably hyperactive.

Pleased to have found a pair of these today but just wish they would pause for breath for longer than a couple of hundred milliseconds.

And I thought Goldcrests were elusive. I had exclusive access to a pair of these today and still did not manage to get the shot I wanted - I blame the light of course
