Equipment

Other Photos

This site contains a selection of bird photographs which I have taken on board the drilling rig Sedco 711, which operates mostly in the North Sea. The rig has also worked in the Atlantic Ocean off the west coast of Ireland, and in the Irish Sea offshore Cork. There are also a few photos which were taken on other rigs and forwarded to me by offshore colleagues.

Clicking on the links will take you to Sea Birds (Gulls, Auks, Petrels, etc) or Land Birds (everything else). There are also pages on the equipment I use, the Sedco 711 itself and some other bird photos taken on land!
