It’s Wednesday , I’m at the hide with my wife Anne and once again the cameras are all set up ready to photograph the wildlife. But today’s different and definitely not the usual Wildlife Wednesday, so please forgive me , when I indulging myself a little.

Wild is now four years old , and the blog has exceeded all my expectations and has almost developed a life of it’s own. The blog , my virtual adventures in the world of wildlife photography has now grown into the real , physical world with the addition of the photography hide and wildflower meadow , our new base deep in the wonderful rolling hills of North Wiltshire. This in turn has been immortalised in a wonderful cake , depicting the hide , camera , meadow and wildlife .( thank you Anne )

Oh , and it’s also my Birthday.
