I was contacted a little while ago by the Gloucestershire Wildlife Trust. They asked if they could use one of my pictures of a Willow Tit for a blog that they were writing for their website. Of course, I was delighted to be asked and had no hesitation for a fantastic organisation that does lots of very good work all over the country.
The Trust aims to help nature recover from the decline of past decades, and I have been l lucky enough to see their work at close hand whilst on my many jaunts around the UK. They do a superb job in making nature and wildlife appear fun and accessible to all.
A quote from their website: "We want to inspire people about the natural world so that they value it, understand their relationship with it and take action to protect and restore it."
The article in question can be found here: http://www.gloucestershirewildlifetrust.co.uk/blog/community/2015/07/03/top-10-tips-wildlife-photography

ReplyDeleteDear little bird
ReplyDeleteGreat shots - the county trusts are wonderful organisations - we don't have anything like them here, which is a shame really. Maybe if I will a lottery!
