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.

A lovely view. I can imagine the response of the person(s) who burned down the bird hide would be something similar to what Edmund Mallory said when he was asked why he wanted to climb Mount Everest. "Because it is there." Sometimes I just have to shake my head at how evil some people are. (not Mallory, the arsonist)

What a beautiful area this is. I'm always drawn to limnal spaces, especially between land and sea.

See the sneaks came at night. Rather a strange target...must have been teenagers with nothing better to do. All that aside, what a gorgeous scene.

It is so very sad, that there are so evil persons in the world. We could easily do without any of them. But you got a might wonderful panorama here, Andrea. Hope other birds are now living there.

Looks a lovely peaceful place. Why would someone want to destroy it?

their parents never taught the right from wrong and therefore Little Jimmy was just expressing his feeling! Bah!
