Birdies!!!

Whilst sitting at home feeling sorry for myself due to a previous nights attempt at self embalming I got a rather random phone call from my Fiancé.

Kim was heading up toward Primrose Hill and whilst going past Regents Park in Holborn she noticed that there were a large number of birds of prey on perches. I have an avid love of all things alive so my hangover rapidly forgotten I tore around the house and gathered up my photography gear.

What did I discover? These guys! Stunning birds but it's not the same as seeing them in the wild. Still a very special experience.

Christmas - Devon and Saunton Sands

Merry Christmas and all that - formalities aside it's always nice to get out of the big smoke and see some of the country you're living in and spend some quality time with friends. This year we headed out to Devon. It was a fantastic trip and the weather was spot on the whole time. I managed to get some shots off and since I haven't had time to update this I thought I'd put them up here.

2008 Wildlife Photographer of the Year Exhibition.

Every year there is a photo exhibition on at the London Natural History Museum. Myself and my fiancé go to see it without fail. We have not been this year but as it runs through to the 26th of April we have plenty of time. Since we are coming into winter it strikes me as a pretty good way to kill some time and once you've done this you can visit both he Natural History Museum and also the Science Museum situated behind it. Both are excellent examples of museums and certainly a full day of very interesting stuff for young and old. For the Wildlife Photographer of the Year Exhibition you have to buy tickets before hand that then provide you with a specific time slot when you can visit. You can get tickets here. If you have ever had any love for animals, nature or photography I could not more strongly suggest you get along to see it.

Here are some examples of this years stunning offerings. More can be found here
