WHAT'S NEW

BLOG
I am close to completing my quest to see all the butterfly species in the UK. There are just three new species for me to see in 2025 and you can read how I've been getting on here:
In Search of the Heath Fritillary
With so many butterfly outings, I've now created a new page exclusively for Butterflies and Moths blog posts.
NEW PHOTOS
ANTARCTICA!
In the autumn of 2024, an unexpected opportunity for me to visit Antarctica arose at a heavily discounted rate. This was a trip I was due to take in 2020 and naturally, it didn't happen back then. I couldn't resist going and I have to say, it didn't disappoint. What an amazing experience! A real trip of a lifetime.
I've now posted some photos in the Holidays section, so you can see a selection of my favourites from the trip by clicking here.
The first blog post is now online, which you'll find here.
Plus, later this year, I'll be giving an
ANTARCTICA TALK
on
SUNDAY 12TH OCTOBER
(afternoon)
at
THE STEYNING CENTRE
Further details will be available in due course. But save the date if you'd like to hear more about my trip and see the photos on a big screen!
WRITING
In 2023 I made the conscious choice to cut back on my dance teaching hours so I could dedicate more time to writing. I'm in the final stages of completing my first book, Shooting Stars (non fiction). You can find out more by clicking here.
Whilst gradually progressing with this first book, I'm already looking to start work soon on my second book, which is based on my blog post series Living The Best Life Possible.
As a result of this new direction, there's been a shift in focus with the whole website. It's no longer just a platform for me to share my photos, but also my writing and nature experiences. I hope you enjoy browsing my site and I welcome any positive or constructive feedback.
