My thoughts and feelings about the wildlife I see. I am drawn to the vanishing wildlife I encounter, such as the wood-white butterfly, the nightingale and the endangered smooth snake. To these could be added the ancient Shoebill Stork, the Mysterious Marabou, the Mountain Gorilla and the Chimpanzee....and a host of others, great and small.

A smart white egret
These lovely white egrets are a recent colonist in Southern England and are a lovely sight. There is an all black form in West Africa and the two are often seen together hunting in the shallows. In England only the white form exists. They are found on the Pagham marshes where they dash through the water spearing fish.
