Earlier this year we had a beautiful show of the #auroraborealis #northernlights in the South of England. This was the first episode in May. I missed the second one in Oct; I was in Africa. I believe we can expect to see a few more this winter. I can't wait!

In a hurry - A #Commonkestrel running on the ground towards me. When they fledge they spend a lot of time on the ground chasing insects. Got this one running straight down the barrel #wildlife #nature #photography #birds🪶 #canon #birdofprey #british #ukwildlife #bird #falcotinnunculus

A swan at the moment of take-off, in fact I have the whole sequence of this, maybe I’ll share it all some time. I was going to crop it tighter, but I wanted to show the water and the reflection.

A flashback to the time five years ago when our local council designated part of the village green as a Wildflower meadow. Project since abandoned and now regularly mowed. Philistines.

This canal is at the bottom of my brother’s garden. There is a beautiful swan which regularly paddles up to feed. I hope one day to see it has a mate. Such grace and elegance. 🦢

Here’s a Jay, showing a nice bit of blue, glimpsed through some branches, June 2017.

I'm grateful for the likes on my last heron pic, so here’s another, from June 2019, this time in a suburban setting - round here they settle in gardens, on rooftops...almost like gigantic pigeons.

Another one of a heron landing, I left more of the tree in this shot because the shape of it reflects the shape of the bird, maybe? The evening of 24th July 2016.

Under a canopy of oak and elm, and the light patter of rain, and resting swans: a calming walk by the canal to soothe your timeline. 😊
