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.

Lady Glanville's Fritillary
Here is one of our most beautiful butterflies. Formerly widespread in England it is now restricted to a few sites on the Isle of Wight and on the mainland at the Hordle Cliffs. It is a rare and beautiful sight indeed.
