Grey Seals of Donna Nook

I went on a trip as a member of the Wildlife photographer's society to Donna Nook in Lincolnshire to film the grey seals. This is what I came up with:

A few shots on my new D90

This year began my third and final year as a Wildlife and Media student. I recently bought a Nikon D90 so I could enjoy my wildlife watching to the full. Now I can film :)

This first little shot is of a one-eyed wood mouse, which I spotted when my friend Rachael Laisney and I were walking along the River Pettreil behind our university campus.



I got this short shot of a female sparrowhawk on Beacon Edge outside Penrith. It was the first time I tried out my new one man chair hide which I feel was a great success :)



This shot shows a wood mouse with great speed and agility, jumping into a hole in a tree. Natasha Fraser and Roger Atkins invited me along with them on their mammal trapping experiment. They advised me that the mice usually make for the hole in the tree nearby, knowing this I was able to achieve this shot.
