What to shoot (Photograph) in Autumn in the UK

Autumn is the time leaves start to turn all shades and fall from
Trees, a great time to get some Landscape Photography practice in, with late sunrises and early sunsets there's really no excuse is there.

Fungi starts to make an appearance on pastures and damp woodland floors.

Time to keep bird feeders and tables topped up as the birds start making more regular visits,
find a nice perch for them to land on before flying on to feeders and tables.

Starling murmurations start in Autumn, where flocks of Starlings gather and fill the sky with swirling patterns.

Migratory birds start to arrive for the winter like Whooper Swans and Pink Footed Geese and many others.




The Deer Rut begins with Stags clashing antlers up and down the country. To find out where to see this visit The British Deer Society







Grey Seal pups start to appear in late Autumn, a few places to see these are Donna Nook in Lincolnshire and Farne Islands in Northumberland.

RSPB Old Moor 20/5/13

Warning this blog contains lots of Black Headed Gulls,

it was about the only thing i shot all day,well 3 hours anyway.

The garden hide had less action than my own garden,very quiet.

Did visit a lot of the hides but the path to the reed bed hides were closed,not exactly sure why maybe the bittern was nesting.

All shots from the Field Pool West Hide.

Was mainly practicing my flying shots.

 This little fellow (Little Grebe) was being dive bombed by the Gull.

Family outing for some Canada Geese.

Perfect form from a Black Headed Gull.

Long Tailed Tit wasn't really set up or expecting this

 but managed to snap a shot before it took off.

Again Thanks for looking.

Cheers al.

Shots from the shed.

Started to set the garden up so I can try to use the shed as an hide, here's the first couple I took in march, gonna try to keep this updated every couple of months at least, thanks for looking.
