PHOTO OF THE MONTH
KEEPING WATCH
“While walking, I saw a badger in an open wooded area, so for a week at dusk I brought a camera and sprinkled peanuts outside the sett, while lying about five metres away and observing the badgers quietly for 20 minutes. I learned in that time how different each badger is and how each has its own distinct personality.”
THE PRIZE
This month’s winner receives a pair of Ariat Skyline Mid Waterproof boots, worth £130. The boots are mesh-lined and made with waterproof full-grain leather, plus a shock-absorbing EVA midsole and extra wear protection around the toe and heel. A dual-density Duratread™ outsole provides multi-dimensional traction for sure footing. Sizes: women’s 3–8.5; men’s 7–12. ariat.com
GREEN GRACE
“I loved the delicate beauty and grace of this greenveined white butterfly.”
THROUGH BLUE
“I was very surprised to see so many bluebells with a mix of other flowers on Skomer.”
FISHY FLIGHT
“My son Jacob, 13, recently started photography and shot this image of a kingfisher catching his lunch. This is only Jacob’s second time seeing a kingfisher in real life.”
