| | | Hello from South Wales Hi
I'm a keen wildlife and landscape photographer, who enjoys being out and about in the countryside.
I'm looking forward to speaking to you all and picking up tips on where to find and how to photograph the elusive British wildlife

| | | Re: Hello from South Wales Hi Gerald, a warm welcome to the site, as Dai has already mentioned there are lots of friendly and helpful people here who will help you with the 'how to photograph' wildlife.
As for where to, you won't go far wrong down the WWT Wetland centre, or Pembray country park, both venue's are excellent for birds, insects and reptiles, I'll probably see you down there
