Hi, I'm Andrea, and I'm interested in creatures and plants both wild and tamed, and people of all sorts. I only use a compact digital camera ,as I love being able to get it into a back pocket, and not have to cart heavy kit about. I carry a Panasonic Lumix TZ series, binoculars and a hand lens almost everywhere.Most of my outings are with the dogs so I only use point and shoot.
I am getting the hang of Photoshop, thanks to some very kind folk on RR!
I have a wildlife garden in Bournemouth, Dorset, in the UK, and spend a lot of time there . I retired from teaching art to teenagers a while ago.
I'm now getting some good results with my digi compacts; it took me a while to make the switch from my old film camera, an 1960 ish Pentax Spotmatic, but the mistakes are much cheaper!
I have 4 lodgers, 3 dogs and a parrot who, as at 2017, I have had 40 years.
I has so far had 19 dogs, mostly rescues.

Cute shots, did he tap on the window and say "Hey!.. I'm nuts about this place!" One thing they sometimes do is get their nuts and hide them in the lawn and then return for them later.

Marvelous capture of the sly rodent, Andrea, as it makes sure the coast is clear before it invades the bird feeder.

My little beestie sits by the back door window and barks like a crazy thing every time she sees a squirrel in the garden, which is pretty much the whole day long. She does out and chases them up the trees or fence, comes back inside, and goes out to do it again. Repeatedly. She barks under the tree as if to say "Jump into my mouth, you rodent!" They never do. Great capture of this marauder!

Both photos are fabulous Andrea! we have a Bird Feeder with a lid that raises up and the squirrels would just push the lid up and get the seeds to put it bluntly, we used a bungee cord and now the squirrels cannot get to the seeds

"Hello? Is anyone there?" They certainly are cheeky. Terrific catch.
