Kingfisher

July 17, 2021 by fred Leave a Comment

To take a picture of a kingfisher in flight, you need three things. Speed, aperture and luck! You need to know where the bird is going to fly from and to.  And you need some luck. Here are two shots I took during my last session in the hide.

Roe deer

Another cracking morning with roe deer. A doe with her now two big young was walking first in a crop and then in a meadow…lovely to watch and photograph.

Sparrowhawk

March 10, 2021 by fred Leave a Comment

I was in my woodland hide yesterday. When suddenly a sparrowhawk flies in like a rocket. The bird was trying to catch a prey. But he missed. He came back NINE TIME withing half an hour. I had never seen anything like this before. It was amazing to watch.

More ducks

While at Slimbridge, I had the opportunity to photograph other duck. Slimbridge is probably one of the best place in UK to photograph ducks in flight.
