		<description><![CDATA[The other day Kevin and I went for a walk to get out of Brighton. We headed for the River Rother. I grumbled &#8211; too many people, it wasn&#8217;t wild enough, too tame, can&#8217;t get away enough! I missed seeing the pleasant surroundings and wildlife so caught up was I in my thoughts and grumblings. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I’ve been wanting to photograph the elusive and fleeting wildlife encounters I’ve experienced recently around town – the sparrowhawk that flew straight across the road in front of me making a peeping noise and with a starling or blackbird in its talons. Or the fox which slunk past me on the pavement within a metre [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I’ve been trying to continue with my children’s story. I know that I want it to about turtles and a girl named Christine, who lives on a cliff overlooking the sea. I&#8217;ve been thinking a lot about turtles in the last few days and remembered a dream I had last year that involved my sister [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Here’s a wildlife experience I had earlier this year when in Guatemala. I wrote it for submission to BBC Wildlife magazine and although they liked it, the ending is unresolved and so unsuitable, I couldn’t tie it up neatly. Still…here we are:
We had to set up the hammocks quickly if we were to get to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This year I’ve ventured into the Pyrenees to where the clouds trawl the ground. I worked my body, hiking, freed my mind and created space for myself out of all that mountainous space. I’ve craved simplicity. Driving back up through the Dordogne, we visited prehistoric caves – Gargas, ‘the cave of hands’ and Cap Blanc, [...]]]></description>
