It feels as if I’m lucky when I visit the Lancashire mosses. Rarely do I fail to see the Barn Owl and more often than not it silently floats up to me before banking away down an adjacent drainage ditch. My brother, who photographed birds primarily in the era of film, has spent many hours watching without such fine sightings. He’s of a mind I keep one in the van and release it each time I visit!
The second set from the day at Gigrin, this time the ‘White’ Kite. It’s a fairly regular visitor to the feeding station at Gigrin and the correct term for these ‘whites is actually leucistic.
The first of a short series from the Kites at Gigrin last week, beginning with the Black Kite.
During the year I spent on the farm my aim was to photograph just about everything that each day would bring.
My work with a farming community in Bala, North Wales started some 28 years ago and over the next year I’m aiming to take the work back to the community to properly archive all the images.
We’re running a major environmental project in university at the moment called 350, much more about this soon, but check out this piece of work from one of our first years at Glamorgan University. You can see more of Tom’s work at his site.
