Geoff Cooper Wildlife Photography This is a place to share my wildlife photos and videos 🐾

I am an amateur wildlife photographer and videographer living in Ayrshire, Scotland - it's a huge privilege have such an awesome wild landscape on my doorstep! In addition to the photos that I'll post here, I also like to make wildlife photography vlogs for my YouTube channel.

Robin in our local woodland. I think this one was hoping from some crumbs as it kept getting closer and closer every time I tried to get a photo - this is one of the few shots where it was outside of the minimum focus distance of my little 400mm f/4.5!

Cabins in a field of purple flowers. The flowers are actually not flax, as I captioned them in my 2026 photo calendar (oops!) but rather some kind of Phacelia which has been planted for bees and other insects 🐝
