There have been some superb shots taken of these Otters lately and I know how patient the chaps that took them are.
I saw one Otter today and for just a couple of seconds, long enough to take three shots!
They are beautiful animals though and are always a real treat to see.
The Isle of Purbeck is a peninsula on the southern tip of the the county of Dorset in England. The photographs I take, hopefully, help to express how I feel about this magical place and show you things which you may see if you come to visit. I am a full time, professional photographer and have a gallery in Swanage. Please feel free to click on the picture to see it larger or to look at my other photographs. www.purbeckfootprints.co.uk

A Quick Swim
Black Eyes
On a cold, dull, windy morning it was a struggle to find anyone willing to pose. Luckily there are always the old favourites to rely upon. Great Tits are wonderful target practise.
A Balanced Approach
The promised sunshine and blue skies just didn't happen this morning and our walk along the cliffs was a decidedly chilly one. Once again though, the Fulmars proved impossible to resist.

Over The Shoulder
Dartford Warblers are rapidly becoming a bit of a favourite of mine. Apart from being a good looking little bird, they are great fun to watch and to photograph. I like his song too, reminds me of someone trying to tune in an old radio.
Red Pole Dancer
As usual, the Sun shines during the week whilst I'm at work and so we are back to drive-bys and traffic jams. I don't see many Redpoles either and so when this little one hopped along the hedgerow I had to take a break. I only managed three shots before he disappeared but I quite like this one.

Classic Pose
My brother once said how amazed he was that Swans were always so clean. I told him that it may have something to do with the amount of time they spend in the water !!!!
No Patience
I need a picture of Corfe Castle, Swanage Railway and a lovely old steam train. Unfortunately, patience is not my strong point. I can wait, motionless for hours watching deer, but I could barely manage 30 seconds waiting for a train.....
Quiet but never silent.
I missed the Sun this morning, not because I was late but because the early wander was done and dusted by the time the clouds cleared. When...
