WildlifeTring

WildlifeTring is a mainly photographic diary recording the wildlife and landscapes encounted on my ramblings around the varied habitats in the Tring area. The lime rich grassy hills of Ivinghoe Beacon and Wendover Downs are excellent for orchids, butterflies and migrating birds. The Tring reservoir complex hosts huge numbers of wintering wildfowl, attracts migrant waders, terns and gulls and occasionally an exciting rarity, while the deciduous woods and coniferous plantations of Ashridge and Wendover provide good habitats for mammals and breeding birds. Then of course there is my tiny back garden where I put out mountains of food for the birds!

Although WildlifeTring will usually cover a fairly limited area centred on Tring I will occasionally break the rules and post sightings and photos from favourite haunts a bit further afield such as Bernwood and Otmoor in Oxfordshire.

WildlifeTring is an chance to share my photographs and sightings and provides an opportunity for me to learn more about the wildlife of the area that I have enjoyed living in for the last 10 years.

I hope you enjoy it!
