This is my first attempt at sharing my photographs and knowledge with fellow enthusiasts; with other people who, like me, are continually fascinated with the incredible diversity of animal and plant life on offer here in the United Kingdom. This site is still evolving and new species are being added at regular intervals, so please return whenever you can to see what is new on the site. I shall be adding and updating as and when I can.

My early interest in wildlife almost exclusively involved bird-watching. However, while out birding in the countryside I could hardly fail to notice the diversity of other wildlife literally flying, crawling, hopping or walking around me in the trees and bushes. I became interested in butterflies, then carried that through in a sort of logical progression to moths. My vision magnified as insects caught my attention next; firstly with larger species on the wing such as dragonflies, damselflies and hoverflies; then progressively smaller species such as beetles, snails, slugs, ants and spiders. At the present time I think I can say that my interest is literally restricted by the size of the species and whether or not I can photograph it in any detail.

Please feel free to email me if you have any queries about the photographs shown, if you wish to correct any innacuracies you find within the factual data contained here or even if you just wish to send me any encouraging comments to keep me sufficiently motivated to continue!
