Ospreys are excellent anglers catching a fish on at least 1 in every 4 dives, with success rates sometimes as high as 70 percent. The average time they spend hunting before making a catch is about 12 minutes. They scan, then hover, then dive with feet outstretched and yellow eyes sighting straight along their talons.

First ever trip to Southend on Sea. Unsurprisingly, it's by the Sea!
It was a last minute attempt to go somewhere different for the day, but seemingly we left the better weather at home. With a high of 14c and 20mph winds, my decision of wearing shorts was a bold one.
I took two cameras with me today. My Olympus E-M1 II with the 12-45 F4 Pro, and my E-M10 II with the TTArtisan 25mm F2.
This shot was taken at F5.6 using Focus Peaking.
Lens: Jupiter 37AM on Lens Turbo II

Nice evening out with family so the camera bag came along for the ride. A month or so ago I purchased a K&F Concept Black Diffusion 1/8 filter. Wasn't to sure how effective it was going to be as online edits varied massively. I'm glad I went for the weakest effect as I still found it rather strong in darker lit areas.

By changing the focal length during long exposure you can add movement to your frame, producing leading lines within your frame.
There was something so peaceful about this evening, and this photo really captures it in my eyes: the calm water of the lake, the serenity of the greenery, the pelicans swimming alongside each other as they enjoy the sunset on a warm day… this was taken from my paddle board during an evening float. It seems like we were all enjoying the weather!
I've ridden my bike around Gentofte Lake a number of times and noticed other trails off the western side. On this mid-August day, I decided to ride down one into an area called Brobæk Mose. As I rode on, I saw trail markers that indicated an observation tower. I found the hidden tower and it yielded a new Life-List bird.

It has been back to the typical Grey skies as expected in the UK today. It's been quite some time since I've used the Macro lens. The flat light does have its advantages in this respect. This shot was a stack of 15 images taken with my Olympus E-M1 II
First trip to Llandudno. It took me 37 years! I was lucky to go on a day where it was not Windy so the Gondolas were up and running. I did take advantage of using them but this was shot whilst sitting on the side of the Mountain enjoying some Sun.
I love how this shot came out. The Gondolas were just above me so it gave me the opportunity to give the impression that they could be up at any height in the Mountains.
These Gondolas have been going since 1969 and were still used every year during the Spring and Summer months.

When you look at the Range Map on the All About Birds website, you see the this Crane comes to the Montezuma area just for breeding (and just barely). I've only seen this creature during the migration period, but I should learn more about its breeding habitat and try to find it throughout the breeding season.

Catesby Tunnel, located in Northamptonshire, England, was a Railway tunnel that opened in May 1897. The railway line was part of the Great Central’s ‘London Extension’ with the first train running through in July 1898. The railway tunnel was in service for 68 years until its operational retirement in September 1966. Whilst sitting empty for over 5 decades, it has now reopened as a private test facility.

One of the most familiar North American sparrows, this streaky sparrow likes open, shrubby, or wet areas and when it perches, it will lean back, and sing its stuttering, clattering song.

Back home in upstate New York, this bird is a frequent subject for me. It felt like a little bit of home to see it here in Denmark. There seems to be some slight variations in size and coloring, but it is like running into a long-lost friend far from home.

This set of photos were taken at Wake the Tiger in Bristol, England. This was my second visit, but first time with a camera. Later in 2026 they are opening a new project in London, so I look forward to visiting once it has opened.
