New commission finished!! This portrait was requested by the wonderfully lovely Daniela Flores. I don’t know what he’s called, but I’ve named him Chasethestick Cumberbatch.

Feeding time! Local fisherman in Anstruther feeds fish scraps to the local Gulls, which might explain their good nature towards the alfresco fish & chip diners! #fifebirding #Scotland #ukwildlife #birds #birdphotography #photography #Nature #wildlife

Finally bagged a Lake District Red Squirrel, on our way home from Scotland. Seemed to enjoying the moss on the tree branches. #ukwildlife #Cumbria #Nature #wildlife #Squirrels #RedSquirrels #mammals #photography #wildlifephoto #LakeDistrict

Gracklepalooza is winding down, but it’s been a good one this year! While most are gone, there are still a few around though! This male Common Grackle was flying to the next tree over, and wanted to make sure we got a good look at his “common” colours🤣 #Birds 🪶
A male common grackle flys against a dark background. He is flying right to left and his wings are down so we can see the gorgeous purple iridescence! 
His head is a vibrant blue that sets off his yellow eye!

100% Aside from Leia 'forcing' herself back into a ship from the vacuum of space, The Last Jedi was by far the better of the 3 imo. Can't see anyone rewatching this trilogy as much as the originals.
