Up for discussion
Mobile photography
On the wing
We'll do our best to fit all of these photos in but anything can happen on a live show and it usually does! If you're not able to see tonight's Photo Club we'll put it up on the blog tomorrow.
Thank you for all the fantastic photos you've sent in, it's a real pleasure to share your talents and nature's magnificence. The will be open until the end of June for you to upload your photos and join in with the community.
Update 17th June: We've posted the whole show on the blog here.

Is the photo club not on freeview tonight, because I was looking forward to watching it after Springwatch but was dissapointed to find that it wasn't working?
Great photos everyone!

I am so chuffed to have my shot shown, thanks so much guys :) and yes they were midges, because I was at the telephoto end of my lens the depth of field was small so they were like little specs of light, the lighting just came together with the animals at the just the right time :)
My favourite is probably the pheasant, I think its a stunning piece of wildlife art :)

I love all the photos above, but my favourite is the starlings, just because my garden is full of baby starlings. They make me laugh because they play and squabble just like my two children!

As for the photos, the dragonfly 1st and the kite 2nd for me!

I was walking along side a canal in Surrey in the early afternoon in May, when I heard running footsteps close behind me . I looked back in time to see a deer head lowered, the mouth open about 1/2 inch from my butt. It bit me then butted me into the cannel and tried to follow me in but the water was very deep. The deers eyes where really wild looking and frightening.I swam down the canal a ways to get away and out. I had broken skin and deep teeth marks on my butt through a pair of shorts! It all happened very fast. Has any one else been bitten by a roe deer when out walking? I didnt see the deer before the attack, it was by a tall garden wall oneside and the canal the other.
