My main interests are bats, lepidoptera, orchids & reptiles.

I've been a volunteer reserve warden (BBOWT) and conservation volunteer (DWT, RSPB & Bat Conservation) helping to manage, survey and protect rare species since 1990.

Observations posted here were recorded on my land as part of the "Finding Nature's Footprints" Project within the North Devon Coast National Landscape (AONB).
