This is a completely random compilation of videos posted to the Vine app over the last three months...as I said. NERD ALERT!
An awesome day out yesterday in the company of @tonywoodphotography photographing wildlife .
This is something I've not really ever got into , all I had was my camera and a sigma 50-500mm OS lens no bag no tripod just a bottle of water and it was great .
Started off as a gentle stroll through the wood and spotted a little egret but at distance so we stalked it abit which lead to photographing oyster catchers and a curlew which I was able to capture in flight
Having the ability to use 3D tracking on my camera was amazing and a must in wildlife
We wandered around abit more where some deer were we started to photograph and no word of a lie a young doe came within 5 foot of me and just stared, it was an intimate moment I will never forget truly incredible but one eyed daddy or boyfriend stag with torn ear and blood dripping down it forehead was close by watching which was very nerving and he was not impressed talk about giving the death stare 😬😬
We really filled our boots up with so many images shooting Deer , egrets spoonbills and curlews in flight
also a wee lil robin.

When I go to the zoo with Steve, he’s tall enough to shoot over most glass enclosures. I must content myself with getting fairly decent shots (with a brand-new dSLR) through dirty glass. Except when they are standing sentry, meerkats seem never to stand still. Here’s some information about them.

We are in Tucson Arizona's summer monsoon. I received these three warning alerts last Thursday. This is a shot of my iPhone's screen. It is less than three inches wide. I cropped it anyway even though it is less dramatic...

The cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus) is an atypical member of the cat family (Felidae): that is, unique in its speed, while lacking climbing abilities. Therefore it is placed in its own genus, Acinonyx. The word "cheetah" is derived from a Sanskrit word meaning "variegated body."
It is the fastest land animal, reaching speeds of 70-75 mph in short bursts covering distances up to 460m, and has the ability to accelerate from 0 to 68 mph in three seconds, faster than most supercars.
Sadly, cheetah cubs have a high mortality rate due to genetic factors and predation by carnivores in competition with the cheetah, such as the lion and hyena. Recent inbreeding causes cheetahs to share very similar genetic profiles. This has led to poor sperm, birth defects, cramped teeth, curled tails, and bent limbs. Some biologists now believe that they are too inbred to flourish as a species.
Cheetahs are listed as Vulnerable by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), Red List of threatened species. Some 7,000 cheetahs remain in the wild in Africa and (a few) Asia.
There have been successful breeding programmes, including the use of in vitro fertilisation, in zoos around the world. This beauty was seen at Chester Zoo.
This is a reworked version of an earlier image in my stream.
The swift fox kits watch with trepidation as a Swainson's hawk flies low along the dirt road in front of them. The kits probably weigh only 3-4 pounds each, and as such are on the menu for some of the larger raptors in the area, especially golden eagles. They are smart to watch the skies and stay close to the safety of the den.
Striscia is very concentrated on the sounds of the spring! :-)
He is wild but very sweet!

I always feel a little electricity in the air when I come suddenly upon a deer in the wild. I think it has something to do with how alert the deer becomes when it senses my presence. There is a vibrancy inherent in this level of mindfulness--no thoughts or judgements--just a total immersion in observing the moment.
Now I'm heading back to immerse myself in work. See ya all next weekend.

The National Weather Alert alarm goes off and the guy says "Take Cover Now!". To me that mean grab my camera NOW and run out the front door and across the road. About 3 minute after this shot was taken and a couple dozen others I ran out of time. I am pretty sure that I broke my High School 100 yard dash record by at least a second!. I barely got wet.
While out for a morning walk with Murphy, I noticed this GBH perched on a rock in front of another cottage ... so I snuck down closer to grab a few exposures ;-)
