Wildlife Photography
It`s always nice to get a bit of snow. Here in Buckinghamshire we had a little bit of the white stuff . It lasted 5 minutes and it was gone.
I had placed a few apple in my garden. A fieldfare was eating one of the apple this morning. I went and sat in my hide and took a few shots.
I wish we had more snow!!!! It is easy to take picture of wildlife in the snow!!

This morning, I was at my hare paradise. I was in the middle of a snow storm. It did not last very long. The light was incredible. very dark and bright. Storm Light , the best!
When this happened, it usually does not last for very long….I have to find things to place in the foreground! And quickly!
At first, I took shots of sheep  and after 10 minutes I came across a Brown hare….Beautiful…
The whole storm lasted 15 minutes and it was all over…

The only shot of brown hare that I took….
This morning I was “out there” It was magical. the light was not great but the frost acted as a flash gun. I was lucky to come several Chinese water deer. Male and female. They look very smart at this time of year.
Of course I had close encounter with “my” hares.

Brown hare were there too….Laying in the frost.
This is how I feel at the moment!
The weather has gone mad. Yesterday,We had snow in Buckinghamshire . In the morning I went to my woodland hide. They were lots of birds there. It was nice to photograph tit`s and Co. It is always challenging to photograph tits. They are very fast and never stop for anything, especially the coal and the marsh tit.
In the afternoon I had a drive down the barn owl area. I almost got stuck with my hairdresser`s car. It is very very wet everywhere. After an hour or so I spotted an owl on a post. The snow was coming down like mad.
Snow, especially falling snow always make a picture look special, whatever the subject. This is a big crop of the barn owl but I like the shot. It was late afternoon and the owl was probably very hungry….

Barn owl in the countryside is ALWAYS something magical to watch….
