ABOUT ME
- Mike Randall Bird Photography
- I am relatively 'new' to birding having started developing an interest with my wife, Pat on walks 6 years ago. Pat suggests taking a few photographs to record what we see and one thing leads to another! You immediately find out how hard it is to get decent pictures of any birds or animals. Birding and bird photography gets slightly obsessional. You have to be careful to make sure you adequately view the bird before taking pictures (don't always stick to this one).

Brilliant Mike, I have been trying for years to get a good Dabchick image like that and failed miserably.
Hi Mike,
A cute bird that I've never seen and would, for sure not see here. Really great shot with a very nice light which contrast with the colors of the bird! Well done.
Thanks Roy & Chris
Get yourself to somewhere like Filey Dams or North Cave Roy this time of year and with luck you might get one close to the hide.
chris they are great little characters.
