A time to reach fulfilment in life; I immerse myself in the natural world and capturing ‘A Glimpse of Nature’ in my photography. All photos my own apart from rt
Hoping life goes well for this beautiful young, inquisitive barn owl I photographed this week. Apparently it’s been a bad breeding year generally, partly due to the downturn in numbers of their main food source, the short-tailed vole. These guys need all the help they can get!…
Young barn owl practicing his flying skills… slightly overshot the runway on this occasion! #owl #barnowl
Life can be a little daunting when you are so young and just left to your own devices… #barnowl #owl
Both Great Crested Grebe parents nurturing their little ‘humbugs’. One parent carrying the chicks whilst the other is bringing in the food.

Chinese water deer loving the freedom to run now it’s harvest time… #deer #chinesewaterdeer
I had been lying low for several minutes observing some hares further up the field, and then this little leveret popped up from nowhere, about 5m in front of me! #hare #leveret
The big wide world can be quite daunting when you’ve just learned to get out of your nest box and you’ve been left to your own devices! #barnowl #owl
A first glimpse of one of this year’s owlets as she began to move around, out of her nest box. Precious times!
I can’t say ‘Just another hare’ because it sounds as if he’s unimportant. He’s unique, as they all are! Love the way he was looking at me through the crop as if to say ‘Ok, I’ll pose for you, I know you mean me no harm’ 🥰 #hare #harvesthare
The tastiest bit is always just out of reach! (Specially when you’re so little ❤️) #hare
