First thing outside this morning I was pleased to get a garden tick in the form of a male Stonechat perched on the phone wires above our drive. I've never had this species on any of my garden lists so its a good record. They are usually down along the coast path at Howick Haven about half a mile away. It flushed before I could retrieve...

I had a great time on Friday at Lauren and Jon's wedding. Prior to their big day, we'd worked together twice on a pair of pre-wedding shoots. I'm a firm believer that the experience of a pre-wedding shoot helps me build an excellent rapport with couples and that this adds real value on the wedding day. In Lauren and Jon, I was blessed once again with a fantastic couple to work with. They get on so...
