New Horizons

I thought it was time I started a fresh blog; a blog that was in step with where I am in time and space. So, I did the decent thing and allowed New Year to drift quietly away, just so that this wasn't 'just another blog' that started as a "Happy New Year" but then didn't go anywhere!

As an all-round naturalist and wildlife tour guide, I am both lucky and privileged to get to go to some great places, but I also get to meet some great people in the course of that privilege, so this first post is by way of an introduction as to what I hope to be posting. Look out for posts about great wildlife, great people and great places. But also expect some personal views on the environment, conservation and all things natural. I'll be posting pictures from trips to far flung places, but also notes and observations on things closer to home, as my wife and I explore our garden and our local patch!

I have been posting as A Naturalist Abroad for some time on Facebook now (and you can follow me there, too!) but this blog will allow more space for thought and comment, as well as allowing me to to give you advance notice of up-coming trips, walks, talks and other events that I shall be involved in - and hoping that you can join me.
