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!Â
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! Â
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.

The robins came to our garden to nest and as soon as the chicks could fend for themselves they left them to it and now all the chicks have gone!! This is a lovely Xmas card shot.

A wonderful photo and I still can't understand why there is a the difference between your robin and ours?

Scruffy or not he's keeping you company and spreading a little happiness.

Beautiful capture!!!

He has a quiet little spot to watch the world! Great capture! An exhausting breeding season takes its toll before they feed up and moult to fresh winter feathers!

So petty! So delightfully different from ours, so tiny and cute, and the pose on the lattice is perfect. Delightful!

A beautiful shot...definitely Christmas card worthy...I do not think he looks scruffy. He looks fluffy fat and happy to me. :)
