Nature Journal and Photo Blog
A Norfolk blog exploring local wildlife, natural history, conservation and wildlife-friendly gardening through the lens of an illustrated, analogue nature journal and digital photography.
I blog about nature in the Norfolk countryside and about my wildlife garden.
My blog blends digital photos with an analogue nature journalling practice. Here nature observation and citizen science intersects with written diaries or art journals, inspiring a deeper connection with nature and cultivating curiosity, creativity and flow.

“I like my nature photos the natural way.”
A small note about nature photography ethics. For me respecting nature comes before the image. My images are largely candid observations of whatever I happen across just doing what it does naturally. I do my utmost to avoid disturbance using long professional lenses. This means that you won’t find here contrived, artificially pristine images of refrigerated insects, water bottle sprayed flowers, dead moles posed on a molehill or invisible fishtanks of live bait for kingfisher photography. With the exception of wild wolves (an endangered species) and a few rescued wildlife and bird of prey sanctuary photos, my images aren’t baited, and never with live bait.
