| Introduction | I have been interested in wildlife for as long as I can remember and regularly visit a number of sites within my own County of Essex. In addition to sites in Essex, I also regularly visit Kent, Suffolk and Norfolk and make annual trips to Wales and Scotland. In addition, in recent years I have visited Spain, Poland, Hungary, Slovakia, Bulgaria, Romania, Estonia, Greece, Iceland, Norway and Finland. I first created my main website in July 2005. Wildlife watching enables me to visit some of the most awe-inspiring landscapes and beautiful scenery in the UK and other parts of Europe. Photography is a more recent interest and I have found that this adds to my longer term passion for wildlife and the natural environment. So much to see, so little time to see it! |
