Eastern Bush Chat: April 2015
http://easternbushchat.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
A ramble through the life of a birder and wildlife enthusiast based in the beautiful county of Norfolk. Thursday, 30 April 2015. Gorillas That Are Missed. Friday, 24 April 2015. A lone migrant making its way north through Israel. These perky birds seemed to appear out of nowhere whistling their three note. Welcome as soon as we stepped out of the car. They were after free hand-outs. And as soon as they realised none were forthcoming upped and disappeared. Another scavenger that seemed quite used to people.

Eastern Bush Chat: Stop That Pigeon!
http://easternbushchat.blogspot.com/2015/08/stop-that-pigeon.html
A ramble through the life of a birder and wildlife enthusiast based in the beautiful county of Norfolk. Tuesday, 18 August 2015. They do have another side, so I would like to offer an alternative view of these much maligned creatures. And grudgingly developed affection for what turned out to be a philandering, fearless thug. Despite his deformity, he would strut along the garden path heedless of the odd cat that strayed into the vicinity, he would beat up any rival that dared stray into his realm, he...

Carl Bovis Nature Photography. Nature and bird photography from in and around Somerset, UK. Sunday, 26 April 2015. Hudsonian Godwit in Somerset! They don't come much rarer! So Saturday started just like so many before. Up early and off to work. I need the overtime, new cameras don't pay for themselves! Also 3 young children, a Flat Coated Retriever, Somersets oldest cat (probably! A Chameleon and 2 Ball Pythons don't pay for themselves either! We walked over the road and made our way to the scrape where ...

Carl Bovis Nature Photography. Nature and bird photography from in and around Somerset, UK. Tuesday, 30 September 2014. Failing to find a Red Backed Shrike at Sand Point! On Sunday the 28th September I went to Sand Point, a peninsula that stretches out into the Bristol Channel at the end of Sand Bay in Somerset, UK. I went with the sole intention of finding and photographing a Red Backed Shrike there, a very rare bird that I had always wanted to see but never had! I walked right to the tip of the point a...

Carl Bovis Nature Photography. Nature and bird photography from in and around Somerset, UK. Saturday, 31 May 2014. Brilliant birds at Shapwick Heath and RSPB Ham Wall. Yesterday I spent a wonderful 4 hours at the neighbouring nature reserves Shapwick Heath and RSPB Ham Wall. It was a very overcast day and the light was terrible for photography, but it didn't stop me snapping away anyway! I mostly got only record shots thanks to the low light, but the birds were stellar! We walked over the foot bridge to ...

Carl Bovis Nature Photography. Nature and bird photography from in and around Somerset, UK. Sunday, 14 April 2013. A week in Woolacombe! A couple of months ago I booked a week in Woolacombe, Devon with my family for an Easter break. I was expecting lovely weather to be honest, but it turned out that Winter didn't want to hand over the British environment to Spring just yet and the resulting weather was wet, cold and windy! Being a lover of wildlife photography, this wasn't great news! I still had a nice ...

Carl Bovis Nature Photography: March 2014
http://carlbovisnaturephotography.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Carl Bovis Nature Photography. Nature and bird photography from in and around Somerset, UK. Saturday, 22 March 2014. RSPB Greylake. Reed Buntings and Chaffinches galore! After nearly a year I finally managed to replace my damaged 70-300mm Nikkor lens! I had been using a very cheap version that I bought in 2006, and to be quite frank, the quality of the pictures left a lot to be desired! Feels great having a decent lens again! Here are some of the pictures I managed today;. Above - Reed Buntings. Victoria...

Carl Bovis Nature Photography. Nature and bird photography from in and around Somerset, UK. Sunday, 24 May 2015. Bitterns and a world of cuteness! This is the story of my week. The month of May signals baby birds galore, and nothing equals cuteness like baby waterbirds, especially Swans, Geese and Ducks! Baby Coots and Moorhens can't really be included in this cute explosion however, as you soon will see. Some of my best pictures have been from chance, sudden unexpected nature moments! Her name is Cate B...
