NESTING CHICKS IN RADIO CONTROLLED BOAT DRAMA!
My thanks to both the Herts Advertiser and Alex Lewis at The Review for publishing my images of a Coot with chicks being harrassed by a family playing with their remote controlled boat a Verulam Park. This is one such image, the other two are similar. Thanks also to Alex for taking the matter further by bringing it to the attention of St. Albans District Council who, asfaras I am aware, having promised to erect signs asking people not to disturb nesting birds - did absolutely nothing!

LATEST NEWS.....
Having taken part in Part 2 of the competition, I'm delighted to be able to report that I have won the most amazing 12 day African Safari to be hosted by Chris Weston. Watch this space....... further details to follow.
WHAT HAPAPENED NEXT?
I was of course hoping to be able to tell you all about my amazing travels to South Africa with Chris - Unfortunately prior to trip I was quite ill and advised by my Consultant not to undertake any travel.
As you can well imagine I was absolutely devastated. All the people involved, i.e., Digital SLR User Magazine, Chris Weston and Pentax were all absolutely wonderful however so as not to waste this wonderful trip one of the runners up in the competition took my place.
The good news is that I am now completely recovered and it is my intention to visit my beloved Africa next year.
THINGS ARE LOOKING UP
This image taken at a very wet Battle Proms 2007 won me first place in a competition run by the Enjoying Photography on line forum (a link to this site is on my links page). Naturally, I was over the moon and am now the proud owner of a Joby DSLR Gorillapod.
