Like most self employed photographers my diary emptied rapidly in March 2020 due to the Covid Pandemic  all events, weddings and equestrian events postponed or cancelled and consequently I was left looking for things to do whilst staying at home. Firstly I spent three or four weeks building a brand new photography website, which is now up and running.

Once the website was done I was looking for something else to challenge me and keep me occupied. I decided to try and combine my love of photography with my love for the countryside and its wildlife. I started by photographing the birds that visit the feeders in the garden something I could do without leaving home. Once I was able to go a bit further I visited a few of my favourite wild places to try my hand at Wild birds. I have found this extremely cathartic and it has proved to be very good for my mental state.
