It’s that time of year again – seal pups in Norfolk

It’s December, so that means it was time for our annual pilgrimage to North Norfolk to see the grey seals and their pups at Blakeney Point, Horsey Gap and, now Winterton.

In lockdown it's comforting to think back to happier times. We all travelled to the South Island of New Zealand over New Year and early January. All of these were taken on the Otago Pensinula. WARNING: extreme cuteness alert!
Red deer stag taken last week in Richmond Park before things got properly crazy. We're not going back for a while as there are just too many people! Keep safe and keep your distance.

A "raft" of little blue penguins coming ashore at dusk on the Otago peninsula, South Island, New Zealand. It was taken at about 10pm at night with a very high ISO. They come ashore in as a big group as a tactic to avoid predation after a long day of fishing and feeding.
