So long 2024! We’ve been very fortunate this year, filming docs around the world, screening at festivals & gaining a new team member in little Bear, so much to be thankful for. Wishing everyone a very Happy New Year xx

About 200 huge footprints, which were made 166 million years ago, criss-cross the limestone floor in Oxfordshire. They record the comings and goings of a long-necked sauropod called Cetiosaurus and the smaller meat-eating Megalosaurus. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Wonderful to film these Harbour Porpoise (known here in Shetland as 'Neesicks') in glass-calm conditions off the east coast this week before #StormEowyn arrived. It's not very often you get to see their subtle 'puffy' blows as they surface. Whale and Dolphin Conservation (WDC) Blue Planet Society Marine Conservation Society

ORCAS... The icing on the cake of what has been an incredible week. This afternoon we followed the '64s' Orcas from land for a couple of hours as they hunted in Bressay Sound, Shetland. Amazing views with belly rolls, spy hops and tail lobs. 🖤🤍

A spectacular 'blizzard' of King and Common Eiders taking flight over the Barents Sea off the Varanger peninsula, Arctic Norway. An incredible sight!

The Crab Bay Puffin Hide is pretty special this year. We have three pairs currently incubating behind the one-way glass, offering magical views of egg turning, nest tidying, incubation changeovers and sleeping Puffins.
