- My mini Wild flower meadow is looking lush! Why bother with a front lawn when you can have this!
- Here it is after seven years and thousands of miles I've finally done it and filmed every species of freshwater fish in Britain. I recommend watching the full film in the link below but I've attached a short version with stills also. youtube.com/watch?v=1oJ6-f… @BBCSpringwatch
00:00 - Is your pond thick with ice? Best way to make a hole to let oxygen in/out is a saucepan full of hot water and let it melt a hole. Bashing a hole can spook/wake animals up for hibernation and poking a hole could cut the liner so this is a great way to do it and only takes a min.
00:00 - After 7 years of searching all over Britain I've finally done it, filming every single species of freshwater fish in Britain. I'm quite chuffed to say the least! Thanks to everyone whos helped me along the way! Watch the reaction film here! youtube.com/watch?v=AOVJDe…
- Perhaps the piece of footage I'm most well known for this went viral a few years ago. (type fish in whatsapp gifs it'll come up!) Two grayling spawning which took 4 years of hard work to find the right spot to film it.
00:00 - Caught this dipper by accident on my cameras searching the riverbed for the odd caddis or fish snack. @_BTO @Natures_Voice @BBCSpringwatch @TheCairngorms
00:00 - Ever heard a dipper sing up close? You have now! @_BTO @Natures_Voice @theriverstrust @DerbysWildlife @Derbyshirebirds @PeakandMoor @Trent_R_Trust
00:00 - Over the next 50 days i'm gonna post an image of every freshwater fish species in Britain starting with this chunky Rudd! Rudd are a cyprinid that prefer stillwaters and have a deep crimson colour to the fins when in clear water. They have an upturned mouth for surface feeding.
- I'm starting my #birdweek with the trusty old kingfisher a bird I sometimes get a bit numb to seeing so many by riverbanks but they never cease to amaze me with the electric blues and vivid oranges they seem more like a bird of the tropics then british rivers. #birdphotography
- Spent a lovely couple of hours with these shy and secretive birds this morning. Water rails are fairly common but don't often come out into the open so its a treat to see them. @AlanMcFadyen @ScotWildlife @_BTO @WildlifeTrusts

00:00- A recent commission has seen me photographing newts and I got to work with Great Crested Newts which are just BOSS! I've never took the time to really look at one before and they are awesome creatures. This male has a developed crest and breeding colours.
