## Caption

Welcome to day 18 of our #25DaysofPhotographers Advent calendar! Today, we're focusing on the RSPB's Ben Andrew! 
Ben first picked up a DSLR in 2007 on a holiday in South Africa; it was his girlfriend’s camera and he has never ended up giving it back! Since then Ben has honed his skills mainly on British wildlife and enjoys photographing anything from birds of prey to tiny insects. Ben was the 2015 Countryfile Calendar winner with his 'Happy Hedgehog' photograph and is now the RSPB’s Picture Researcher and unofficial staff photographer!
