Some very exciting news! My latest documentary, focusing on all of Britain’s owls species, is now live!

An enormous thank you to everyone who made this possible, including the amazing @RuthTingay who I had the pleasure of working with earlier this year!

It’s been almost two years since my owl film took off, and what a two years it’s been!
Here’s a quick snippet of what I’ve been up too…
Need any camera Ops for Springwatch this year? @RuthTingay @ChrisGPackham @IoloWilliams2

@biammonite No snow in west Scotland!

[Hans van Gasteren @hvangasteren]

Hi UK, here they come!
Huge start of bird migration from the Waddensea westwards. Currently an bird migration traffic rate of 9000 birds per km per hour. Enjoy 😉

[BenGarrickWild @BenGarrickWild]

@biammonite Agreed

[BenGarrickWild @BenGarrickWild]

Horrific

A great moment when this Marsh Harrier came out hunting about 30 feet from me!

[BenGarrickWild @BenGarrickWild]

Time to extend my film!

[Alex Penn @AlexPenn_1]

I'm not one to big up my 'finds', but this one was pretty special! A superb male Snowy Owl @FI_Obs today, topping off a day that's also included two Subalpine Warbler and a visit from Orca hunting right below the cliffs - absolute Fair Isle magic!

[BenGarrickWild @BenGarrickWild]

@raptor_jimmi Thankyou so much! Some amazing work that you are doing!

[BenGarrickWild @BenGarrickWild]
