Physically we are back in London but all our thoughts are still with majestic Golden and White - tailed Eagles. This eagle adventure was much more than we expected and memories from the trip we will carry with us all our lives. All thanks to “Eagle Man” Ole...

Great Grey Owls, Finland

We were fascinated by the pictures of Great Grey Owls we saw in London Bird fair 2012. Since then we simply fell in love with this bird. Great Grey Owl also known as a Lapland Owl is distributed across the Northern Hemisphere and is the largest but not heaviest of the northern forest. We’ve chosen to go to Finland as it is famous of having 10 diff...

Red Squirrels in Winter

A picture of red squirrels in the snow was in our minds for some time. Last year we headed to Scotland where the biggest population of UK red squirrels is found. Unfortunately we didn’t get a chance to photograph this ginger coated beauty in the snow. Unusually for Scotland February was without snow. This year we headed to Yorkshire Dales with the...

Red Deer Photography and More

We’ll always remember that dark and cold October morning when for the first time we've witnessed an impressive red deer rut. The period when the largest wild land mammals of UK roar, bark and clash antlers doesn’t last long and without a doubt is unforgettable. Our favorite time for red deer photography without a doubt is dawn. Of course most of t...

Finland on th...

We spend some time watching kingfishers in Rye Meads, we had a possibility to see them in Rainham Marshes and even in the Bushy Park, London, but Mark Hancox’s kingfisher site gave a much better opportunity to enjoy and photograph this beautiful and elusive bird. By 7.30 a.m. we settled down in a hide, prepared our gear and waited for kingfishers...

Visitors of Our Garden

For days we were watching the wildlife through the windows of our flat before one day we decided to take our cameras and spend some time photographic visitors of our garden. We transformed our shed to a hide, covered a garden fence with grass for a better background and of course filled feeders with sunflower seeds, nuts, suet and dry worms. With a...

Rudieji Lokiai Suomijoje

Kelionė į Suomiją buvo puiki. Jai susiruošėme per porą mėnesių, tačiau mintis pamatyti, o jei pasiseks ir nufotografuoti Eurazijos rudąjį lokį nedavė ramybės paskutiniuosius metus. Anksčiau Eurazijos rudųjų lokių buvo galima aptikti visoje Europoje, tačiau pradėjus juos medžioti daugelyje vietų išnyko, įskaitant ir Lietuvą, kur pastarųjų neliko jau...
