Would You Like To Contribute To This Blog?

We are always on the lookout for new writers, photographers and illustrators for the blog!

The motivation could be a strong personal interest or hobby or perhaps as part of a school or college project. The blog has had over 62,000 visits so far so it’s an excellent place to get profile.

By taking a look at the various articles that have been published you can get a good idea of the style and typical level we’d like. Here are some popular examples:

Butterflies: Peter Martin has contributed a fascinating series of posts on butterflies at the Pond – see here.

Plants: Michelle Salter has published a popular series of posts on plants that can be seen at the Pond eg here and here.

Birds and other wildlife: Peter Hutchins wrote a post on the 42 species he saw on a 1.5 hour walk round the Pond! See here.

Colin Gray’s article on bees, written in 2008, is still the most popular article written!

Fish – we’d really appreciate an author on any aspect of this subject as we have very few articles so far!

History – I’m sure there’s lots more to write about but we’ve had a few really interesting articles that might inspire you, see here and here.

Regarding photography at the Pond, we have a site on Flickr that you might want to join or take a look at. This site was set up to cover general Fleet Pond Society events as well as wildlife and pond scenes.

You can also follow Fleet Pond Society on Twitter.
