Marwell, Wirral and Skomer
First, Bristol kite festival needs some help from it's friends. We are certainly friends of the festival.
Marwell
Marwell Photographic Group gets access to the zoo on some summer evenings after the public has gone home.
Wirral
The Wirral marks our wedding aniversary. The date of the event may have changed, but that makes no difference.

Puffins<
We went to Skomer to take pictures of Puffins. We were not disappointed. You can get really close to them on the ground.
Puffins on water
They are easy to catch on the water.
Puffins Interacting
We liked to picture them interacting or displaying different behaviours
Puffins with sand eels
Of course, the shot we really want is with a beak full of sand eels to feed to their chicks in the burrows.
Puffins in flight
Trying to catch birds in flight is exceedingly difficult.
Puffins in flight with sand eels
Of course, it is really special to get a bird in flight, complete with a beak full of sand eels.
