Hudsonian godwit, adult, Countess Weir, 1981 (far right) with two Blackwits. If only I'd had the camera I have now back then! This was taken with a 200mm lens, so you can see how close they were. |
Spiked speedwell, Avon Gorge Risked life and limb climbing above the Bridge Valley Road to see this rare beauty! |
Dolomedes fimbriatus, Catcott Heath Monster spider - what an amazing sight these are. |
Must have been mad in those days. Many of the rarest plants involved dangerous escapades to see and photograph them. Much as I'd love to see them all again with a digital camera, I'm not sure I'd be foolish enough to try and get them all again...
