Wildlife Photography Challenge in London

Despite being an incredibly large and busy city, London has some very interesting and special wildlife, which you can see all year round. In this video from Harry Read and Edwin Towler, the lads have been given a list of twelve species to locate and photograph in one single day! 

A pelican in London? Surely not! Well, it just so happens there are pelicans in London, and in this video, Harry and Edwin have been given a comprehensive list of 12 different animals to find, starting from different types of deer, parakeets, pelicans, foxes, and even a fancy duck! 

Can the two guys complete the challenge within one day? I highly recommend watching the video to see them in action as they travel all over the large city tracking down these animals. 

The two photographers certainly enjoy a bit of banter between them and are clearly quite competitive when it comes to getting the shot, and it continues in an amusing way throughout the short video. Whether the guys are fighting over certain pigeons or taking the mickey out of each other while capturing images of deer, it is a fun adventure to sit back and watch with a nice cup of coffee.

Let us know in the comments below what other species you have seen in London.

They should visit Dalston on a Saturday night - plenty of wildlife in the streets.

Haha I think same can be said for most UK towns and cities!

Dalston in Carlisle? I live near Gretna but not been to Dalston
