Orca bumped into her full brother, Harper, and nephew, Ned at Cairn Wood. We couldn’t resist a family portrait.

Orca and Indie

A visit from Scotland meant a muddy reunion for Orca and her littermate, Indie. The sisters got on brilliantly, and soon became hard to tell apart.

Hawk Walks NI

This little Peregrine Falcon was a highlight of a photography day with my friend Sam. We also had a hawk fly between our heads, which was quite the thrill.
