Siberia : In Search of the Spoon-billed Sandpiper
I've been interested in birds and wildlife since a young boy. During the last 10 years or so I've got more into wildlife photography, which has taken me to some stunning locations around the world. Achievements, I was a finalist in the BBC Children in Need Calendar completion for 2022 and I've had a feature on Bristle-thighed Curlew published in BPOTY book 2019. Wildlife highlight, photographing Snow Leopard in the Mongolian Altai Mountains in March 2020.
During late June and early July of 2018, I joined an expedition to the Kamchatka Peninsula, in eastern Siberia, searching for new breeding sites for the endangered Spoon-billed Sandpiper. Also exploring areas along the coast that had never been visited before. A real wildlife adventure.
