  1. Leach's Petrel
    05.10.2017 - New Brighton Wirral - One of those birds in its environment shots which normally means they were too far away, which this was ,but to see such small dainty birds battling with the Sea and the storm ,so close to home is amazing. These are very rare birds that the recent storms have sent off course ,and about every 7 years you get to see this in the mouth of the River Mersey .

  3. I prefer this kind of thing to your close up bird on a branch shot. Its great to see animals/bugs/birds in their natural environment.
  4. I love it too. A bird in its element :)
  5. That demonstrates the power of nature very well.
  6. that's very special indeed!
  7. Brilliant capture and I must admit as to not knowing about this bird. Thanks for the info.
