Members of the Gazette camera club have taken some incredible pictures of birds, planes, and even a startled fox in north-east Essex.

Snaps of all sorts of birds – from owls to baby blue tits to kestrels – dominate this week’s spread, as well as beautiful flowers.

Members also took photos of the fly-past for King Charles' official birthday on Saturday.

Restricted fly zones were in place in areas stretching along the A12 and into London, with the zone above Colchester being in place from 12.35pm to 1.25pm.
