Filmed at Kirkham, North Yorkshire on 9th April 2019, during participation in national RSPB Willow Tit Survey.
Taken ages to work out why. The BBC Web team have muffed up on a link:
At the bottom of the page there is a bit about Raft spiders. The raft spider shot is one of mine. But the link goes to my Flickr stream, and not their 'faves' or 'Spider album' if they have one.... You can scroll left and right from that image, so you can look at anything you like on my stream. Click on it and Flickr opens... It's great that I'm getting thousands of hits showing as 'No referrer' as it's coming through the BBC's LAN firewalls from the wrong side... S'pose I better let them know.
I might have to point out that the next picture down (which has nothing to do with me) and is also meant to be about Raft spiders, is linked to shots that are mostly of Nursery Web Spiders. . :@D

I thought it was a deer at first when the reeds started moving! Then a bittern popped into view,sort of!
A huge thank you to everyone who was kind enough to send me mails and messages about my film on Springwatch last night. It was great fun to work on and the Springwatch team were fantastic. It took a lot of persuasion to get me on the wrong side of the lens though!
If you missed it, you can see it on BBC iPlayer at www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b0214fhh/Springwatch_2013_E... (18 minutes from the start)
Went for a local patch wander today, heard a lot of agitated buzzing as I went along the edge of the field, looked up and could see masses of bees. Stood and watched for quite a while as they swarmed and then settled into a great big ball of bees up in the spruce tree.
A bit of a first as have never seen a Bee swarm before!
