Fallow Deer, Catmore, Berks 20 December 2009 Seen on a very frosty walk. This stag had accumulated an impressive number of hinds - a few of which can be seen here. Canon EOS 350D & EF 400mm f5.6 |

Fallow Deer, Catmore, Berks 20 December 2009 An enlargement of the left hand portion of the shot above. This little group makes an effective composition, but is somewhat overcropped. Canon EOS 350D & EF 400mm f5.6 |

Roe Deer, Fyfield Wick, Oxon, UK 10 January 2009 'Wild' deer, instead of the 'tame' Fallow below. Canon EOS 40D & EF 400mm f4DO + x1.4TC |

Brown Rat, Luton, UK 30 November 2008 Looks almost appealing in this pose! Taken on an abortive three hour wait for a Red-breasted Flycatcher in cold, dank conditions. This bird had been present for almost a week, but was seen for the last time about 45 mins before I arrived. The perils of twitching! Canon EOS 40D & EF 400mm f4DO |

Female Fallow Deer, Holkam Hall Park, Norfolk 23 October 2008 We were surprised to find that there is free entry for cars into this park, which then gave good views of quite tame, rutting deer - similar to those shown on this year's Autumn Watch BBC TV series! Canon EOS 40D & EF 400mm f4DO |

Male Fallow Deer, Holkam Hall Park, Norfolk 23 October 2008 Not one of the dominant stags, but still an impressive sight. Canon EOS 40D & EF 400mm f4DO |

Fallow Deer, Holkam Hall Park, Norfolk 23 October 2008 The dominant stag surrounded by his females. Continuous grunting calls heard well (this is what the females go for, according to Simon King!). Canon EOS 40D & EF 400mm f4DO |

Hares, Catmore, Berks 17 March 2007 A surprisingly dozy pair captured from reasonably close range. Canon EOS 350D & EF 400mm f5.6 |

Minke Whale, off Gairloch, Scotland. August 2003 Seen from an excellent boat trip off Gairloch in the splendid summer of 2003 (even in Scotland!). This standard tourist trip also featured loads of auks, skuas etc. With Nikon CP 995. |
