It seems like he's very enthusiastic about birds and animals.

It seems like he's very enthusiastic about birds and animals.

He has been known to be a keen wildlife/bird photographer for a long time. So, it's wonderful that he is now sharing his pictures with a wider public.

Unfortunately it’s not the easiest thing to tell which ones are his and from when and which ones are others’. When he says “I found this on Twitter”, for example, does he mean from his account there?

I think he means a finding on Twitter when saying so and not taken from his own twitter account.
The photos of the native species look like his own, the high quality wildlife photos surely aren't his ones.
