In addition to the excellent birds, CretdeChatillon also afforded excellent views of Mont Blanc and the rest of the French Alps. Mont Blanc was often draped in cloud during the rest of our visit, but when visible it really does tower above anything else around it. The remaining snow on the flanks of the mountain emphasise the height and bulk of Europe's highest peak.

Welcome to Peter Moore's wildlife blog, created largely to compensate for a failing short-term memory by providing a record of my experiences watching and photographing wildlife. I have been fortunate enough to see over 450 species of bird and 61 species of butterfly in Great Britain, photographing most of these (badly) over the course of the last 15 years.
