Temperatures may have plunged - with Dorchester even getting some sleet yesterday - but it's business as usual for the county's wildlife.

Birds are feeding on winter berries while some mammals have already taken to their hides to hibernate through the worst of the weather.

The cold doesn't seem to be doing any harm to a particularly handsome fox, captured on camera by Nigel Morris.

Here are our favourite recent wildlife images from Echo Camera Club Dorset - and some stunning landscape shots just for good measure.
