This is the second part of my best of my photos in 2015, the 1st part is here In the last weekend of June I headed to the New Forest to hopefully find some bog raft spiders. I sadly failed to find any there (or at Thursley Common on the way back), but did find…

Norfolk hawker and other wildlife from RSPB Strumpshaw Fen

Arachnid, insect, Norfolk, odonata, spiders, Strumpshaw fenBy Neil-UKWildlifeSeptember 5, 20151 Comment

Back in June I had visit to RSPB Strumpshaw Fen in Norfolk, one of my favourite reserves. I decided to do an anti clockwise loop and started in the area near the ‘Doctors Garden.’ The sun decided to disappear behind the cloud as I arrived around lunchtime, so I wasn’t holding up much hope of…

Cardinal Beetle and mosquito

Diptera, insect, Norfolk, Strumpshaw fenBy Neil-UKWildlifeJune 27, 2013Leave a comment

The nettle beds at Strumpshaw Fen where especially fruitful. This cardinal beetle, the red headed species Pyrochroa serraticornis, posed on the nettles for a bit, though the wind made shots a bit more tricky! The mosquitoes were eating us alive, but i did get a nice shot of one!

Swallowtail butterflies at Strumpshaw Fen

butterflies, insect, Norfolk, Strumpshaw fenBy Neil-UKWildlifeJune 23, 20131 Comment

Last weekend I popped up to Strumpshaw Fen for a couple of days. One of the target species was the swallowtail butterfly. I didn’t manage a good top down angle photo of one with undamaged wings though sadly. One of those with a damsged wing however sat on the floor ignoring everyone photographing it so…

Scarce chaser at Strumpshaw fen

insect, Norfolk, odonata, Strumpshaw fenBy Neil-UKWildlifeJune 17, 2013Leave a comment

Last weekend I spent a couple of days at Strumpshaw Fen RSPB reserve enjoying the invertebrates there. One of them was the scarce chaser dragonfly, Libellula fulva. One was tolerant enough for my 35mm wide angle to be used. Though a bit awkwardly angled for the ‘traditional’ top down shot, as was this maturing male.

Otters in the place everyone knows where they are but I cant tell you…

mammal, mustelid, NorfolkBy Neil-UKWildlifeMarch 9, 201310 Comments

This is what happens when you link to a page without reading it properly (or perhaps it was but that was an inconvenient truth?). This page said nothing about otters being hand fed, perhaps someone was just trying to drum up interest in his facebook page? Shame as it tarnishes all anglers with such behaviour.…

Fulmars at Hunstanton

bird, gull, NorfolkBy Neil-UKWildlifeJanuary 8, 20121 Comment

After looking at the whale (a couple of post back) we headed up the cliff at Hunstanton. In the wind the fulmar performed nicely and a got a number of shots: A couple of other species flew past: A feral pigeon And a common gull We headed back along the beach with the sun pretty…
