Do you follow my nature photography account @naturewithdave yet? You may be wondering where to spot the birds, fauna and landscapes I’ve found on my travels…

You can find out where to find the animals I’ve shot on my journeys below. Considering I am a videographer and photographer in Twickenham, most of my shots will be of photography in west London – but this guide should help you out with finding locations and time of year that you’re most likely to spot them.
