David Bromfield – Ornithologist Southern Africa
I have known Peter for over 70 years and in all that time have seldom met anyone with his single minded commitment to excellence in achieving the objectives of the project at hand. There have been many projects; from designing and building a Photo-finish camera for the local horse racing fraternity to restoring classic and vintage motorcars, clocks and his personal residences. But there was always an underlying interest in photography that manifested even in his working career. It came as no surprise when his interests in birding and photography merged into a serious hobby that complemented the talents of both Peter and his wife, Sandy. The hobby has developed to become a serious project that will make a huge contribution to both birding and photography and leave an abiding legacy.
Jugal Tiwari – Centre for Desert and Ocean Gujarat India
“Peter is an avid birder, he has travelled to over 60 birding destinations in India alone. He takes very good photos and keeps all possible details of the birding areas; his collection of bird photographs will surely help the travelling birder and bird conservation. I am very happy to hear that he is setting up a website to put all his best bird photographs. I wish him all the best.”http;//www.cedobirding.com
John Caddick – Ornithologist England
“Peter has travelled the world in search of birds and has a wonderful collection of photos from some amazing places. I am delighted that he has set up this website to display his best work and I look forward to seeing it grow in future.”http://johncaddick.co.uk
