Wildlife Photography across the Water: Wildlife on the Television

Wildlife on the Television

Apologies to all of our non UK readers as you wont be able to see these unless you have any special arrangements.

Ther have been some great wildlife programmes on our screens recently.

If you missed then then use the BBC i Player and make sure you catch up with Simon King's Shetland Diaries as we trailed in Robbies post from earlier in the week and also The Wilds of Essex from the Natural World series, which was fascinating and beautifully presented and told.

Coming up on Sunday is another from the Natural World on the bonds between parents and their offspring, and then on BBC1 straight after is Countryfile, a series that I am getting more and more into as it has a good coverage of wildlife.

Make sure to set your recorders if you are doing Valentines things though, as I wouldn't want to be responsible for getting between you and your love :-)

Bio's

David Courtenay, a self taught wildlife and nature photographer, has been capturing images for over 30 years. He has had a passion for wildlife since early childhood and remembers being glued to the television whenever Survival, Wildlife on One and other natural history documentaries were shown. In the 2006 he swapped his established career for the life of a wildlife photographer, such a move demands a measure of uncompromising passion and commitment.

David has travelled extensively throughout Europe as well as spending more than 7 months in India working with local guides and trackers in search of Bengal Tiger, Asian One horned Rhino and Asian Elephant. He has also photographed Wildlife in Australia, Malaysia, Thailand, Sumatra, Africa, Canada and America. Working closely with Conservation companies he tries to raise funds to help Wildlife that has been put on the endangered list by poaching and habitation loss

Martin Dyer has had a passion for avian wildlife since childhood, particularly raptors. Photography was also another keen interest and it was with the specific availability and control of the whole process that digital offers that Martin was then able to combine the two in 2003. Based in the UK, Martin is a regular visitor to Scotland, specifically the Isle of Mull to watch the Eagles resident there. Other trips to Europe and around the UK are usually part of Martin’s agenda in a typical year.

However, as a firm believer on making the most of the local patch, Martin has spent a lot of time and hard work creating a wildlife garden which is reaping the rewards with many new species and varieties of wildlife. A keen member of a number of wildlife photographic groups, Martin is keen to expand his portfolio into other areas of wildlife, and has already established a wide portfolio of images of fungi.
