Last week i was luckily enough to have a week up in the Lake District nr to Penrith and was able to get out and about with the camera.
Once up in Penrith first stop was the Red Squirrels that seem to be doing well on the Lowther Estate up there, managed to track down a area which had good numbers of them. I baited the area with the normal of peanuts and peanut butter!!! Within a hour i had two feeding happily in front of the lens.
After half a day with the Reds i decided to try and photograph some of the bird life that frequents the forest as well, Great Spotted Woodpecker, Redpolls, Siskins, and the usual tits and Chaffinches.
