Nuthatch Feeding From Hand

I took this video in Singleton Park, Swansea, today:

Amazing how trusting some of these birds have become.

Merry Christmas!

Swansea Fireworks

Some video of the annual November 5th fireworks here in Swansea, filmed with my Canon 7D with a 17-40mm lens and a Rode Videomic Pro:

Previously, I'd only photographed this spectacle, so it was nice to get some film footage for a change.

Pond Skaters

I filmed these fascinating insects, Pond Skaters (Gerris lacustris) - also known as Water Striders, Water Skimmers, etc. - on October 8th this year on a pond in Clyne Woods, Swansea:

Turnstones

Some clips of Turnstones filmed here in Swansea Bay on September 21st. I was testing out my new Rode Videomic Pro on top of a Canon 7D with a Sigma 500mm lens:

Some more videos are on my YouTube channel HERE.

Grey Seals on Worm's Head, Gower

Here's a compilation of some clips of Grey Seals on Worm's Head on the Gower Peninsula which I filmed on September 4th. There's a female, and a huge bull, and a baby which appears after the four-minute mark:

New Website

I've set up a basic website, which I hope to add to A.S.A.P. If you've nothing better to do, please take a look HERE. If you're on Facebook, please 'like' my Facebook photography page HERE. Thanks.

Last Night's Sunset

Just to show I'm still alive (just about), here's a shot from Monday evening. It was taken on the hill above my house, looking west. The sliver of water in the distance is the Burry Inlet, which separates the Gower Peninsula in the South from Carmarthenshire to the North:

Whilst I was up there, I noticed a half-dozen Swifts and a couple of Swallows flying around, which reminded me that I've hardly seen any of these birds this year. Anyone else noticed a shortage of Swifts and hirundines this Summer?
