IMG_0621_egg.jpg Following the warmest and driest April on record, moorland fires broke out across the UK. Ogden Moor near Wainstalls above Halifax was one of many victims. Several square Km of moorland burned for four days. The blaze was tackled by fire fighters, but despite their efforts the blaze destroyed valuable moorland habitat, killing mammals and amphibians and destroying nesting birds nests. The wind farm was also closed down for a number of days as the blades were a danger to the helicopters fighting the blaze with aerial water drops. This shot shows a moorland wading birds egg destroyed in the blaze.

IMG_7617_flooding.jpg On Saturday 6th March 2010, Melbourne was hit by the worst tropical storm they had experienced in over 100 years. It started with a hail storm, with hail 12cm across (the size of lemons) followed by torrential rain. $millions of damage was caused and many of the cities streets were flooded causing chaos to transport. Whilst they were glad of the water in this drought stricken land, it seems yet further evidence of the impact of climate change which is resulting in more severe weather in many areas.

IMG_7075_police.jpg On Thursday 19th November 2009 over 31cm of rain fell in 24 hours on the Cumbrian mountains. The single largest rainfall total in the British Isles since records began.

The main street was 5 feet underwater and £millions worth of damage was caused.  This shot shows aPC Paul Burke wading through floodwaters on bog lane near Ambleside, UK.

IMG_6952_little egret.jpg Little Egrets roosting at Leighton Moss RSPB bird reserve in Lancashire, UK. Until recently These wading birds were not resident in the British Isles. Warmer Winters caused by climate change has helped them to spread rapidly and colonise many parts of the UK as a breeding bird in the last 15 years.

366W2251_protestor.jpg The village of Toll Bar near Doncaster, South Yorkshire was one of many places hit by unprecedented floods in June 2007, after 5 inches of rain fell in 24 hours.The village was cut off for a week. The summer floods hit thousands of people and cost the government and insurance industry £billions. Global warming is likely to lead to far more frequent extreme weather events like this , with low lying areas becoming increasingly vulnerable. Man will have to learn to adapt.
