I first became interested in Nature, thanks to a particular teacher, when in primary school. Though the intensity has ebbed and flowed through life's stages, this interest has, in birds in particular, remained a constant at some level since. I like being out and about and sharing whatever images I accumulate on Flickr - I also really like seeing the inspiring images and information shared by friends from around the World. Thank you to all who visit, and especially those who interact on, my Photostream; it is really and truly appreciated.
