Proud to have been asked to join @radionickcoffer on @bbc3cr this afternoon to discuss taxidermy.
Having the opportunity to talk on a radio station where all I have is my words, means I’m given a real task of trying to change or alter some of the negative or misconstrued public perceptions people have on taxidermy and taxidermists.
I feel very fortunate to have been invited to speak, on what I hope is - but not exclusively, on behalf of other taxidermists too. Our job is out of love for animals. We work as taxidermists to inform much bigger purposes, whether that is conservation, taxonomy, museums, or purely for the aesthetic appreciation of animals in an art context, which leads people to have taxidermy in their homes. Talking about, inspiring, and educating people about taxidermists and taxidermy in turn generates more business for us, and if we can all support each other, building each other up, we will all be so much better equipped as people and as taxidermists.
Thank you to @radionickcoffer and I hope you’re a little less scared and a little more inspired!

As well as being treated to some stunning days, we've seen some great evenings too. This #viewfromtheoffice was snapped by officers heading out on patrol in #Stevenage. We hope you enjoy the warm weather, but are careful during the hottest times - remember to stay hydrated. ☀️ #sunset #Herts #police #HertsPolice
On Friday Road Policing Unit Special Constables Stu and Matt were on duty and were flagged down by a car stuck in traffic on the A1 with a passenger in the back in the late stages of labour! They provided a rather rapid escort to Lister Hospital just in time as a happy baby boy was delivered in the car park! Amazing work by @eastenglandamb and hospital staff who were caught off guard by their arrival! Welcome to the world baby Levin! #notjustcrime #congratulations #roadspolicing #everydayisdifferent #volunteer #Herts #police #HertsPolice

Bracken, our lovely barn owl, is nearly a year old in a couple of weeks time flies!
we still to this day have no idea if Bracken is a girl or a boy - barn owls have black spots over their chests and bellies if they're female, but Bracken has absolutely none, and also happens to fly at a weight that could be a large male or a smaller female! we will have to wait and see until they moult out to get a more definitive answer (although my money is on a male )
they behaved beautifully on a private experience for some clients yesterday though - very proud
