I have been very quiet on this blog recently as I work on a brand new website allthingswildlife which unsurprisingly has been taking up most of my desk time.Launching soon it will be an ever growing collection of articles, reviews, guides and images all inspired by wildlife and the countryside.
I have though managed a couple of outings with my camera including to Donna Nook in Lincs for the grey seal breeding season.
It's a real wildlife spectacle and well worth a visit between October and December.
I also spent a day at Aberystwyth on the Welsh coast and was rewarded with some great bird life including a very obliging kingfisher,
a surprise dipper
and a pretty decent starling murmuration.
