Hi, my name is Dave and I come from an area of the Midlands in the UK called, with lots of affection, ‘The Black Country’. The Black Country is a place steeped in a rich and varied history and it has a firm place in the story of the Industrial Revolution (hence the name - Black Country, which refers to the soot from all the furnaces located there which coated every building and street - so it’s said) of the 18th and 19th centuries in Britain. I am proud to be one of its ‘sons’. I was born in a town called Stourbridge. All my life I have had a passion for wildlife and the countryside, (I think it started when I was just a nipper when a Magpie came and landed on my pram!). My father used to take me on long country walks when I was very young and he sparked something in me which will last as many lifetimes as one can imagine. All through my life I have felt at my most comfortable whilst in the countryside and just ache for every opportunity to be there. I still get a thrill out of seeing the first Swallow of the year or the first Cowslips bursting into bloom on a warm April day. I have been a wildlife photographer and sound recordist for almost 40 years and lately I have started to produce the ‘Black Country Lad Explores’ series of DVD’s and Blu Ray film discs. They are an expression of my love for wildlife and the countryside and I hope you enjoy watching them as much as I enjoyed making them. Please enjoy their simple pleasures. All the very best Dave
