Stacked images of common froglets and a nursery web spider

amphibian, Arachnid, frog, spidersBy Neil-UKWildlifeSeptember 9, 2018Leave a comment

Back in May/June I had a number of froglets around my pond and some would sit for me nicely, so I thought I’d try some image stacks of them.  (You can find out more about how I make these these stacks/stacked images here). I got some nice results: Of course I had a few failures…

Common froglet in the garden

amphibian, frogBy Neil-UKWildlifeAugust 27, 2017Leave a comment

A few years ago I dug a pond and this year it had it’s first frogspawn. I had loads of tadpoles for much of the spring and summer as a result and they began emerging as frogs a couple of months ago. There are still some around my pond and on a dull day last…

Common Frog Tadpoles Rana temporaria

amphibian, frogBy Neil-UKWildlifeApril 22, 20171 Comment

There has been a bit of a gap since my last blog, so a fair bit to catch up on, but I’ll start with my most recent project; frog tadpoles. Two years ago I dug a small pond in my garden with the hope that some amphibians would turn up, but I only saw one…

Marsh Frog and Migrant Hawker swarm at Rainham marshes

amphibian, Essex, frog, RSPB RainhamBy Neil-UKWildlifeAugust 30, 2013Leave a comment

On visit to RSPB Rainham Marshes in April I saw 2 stoats, one of which was right in front of me, but I couldn’t get a clear shot of it in the reeds and grass. There was a silver lining however, as it scared one of the common lizards up into the reeds, where it…

2 tailed common lizard at RSPB Rainham Marshes

Essex, Reptile, RSPB RainhamBy Neil-UKWildlifeJune 17, 20122 Comments

I paid a visit to Rainham Marshes today as the weather forecast seemed OK, if a bit windy.  The wind pretty much ruled out any serious macro, except for larger stuff on the boardwalks and fences.  Around the bird woodland boardwalk there were plenty of common or viviparous lizards. However this one was a bit…
