Gorgeous sunrises, birds in flight and a swan splashing about on the River Stour. These are just some of the images captured on camera by our Flickr group members in February 2015.

The Bournemouth Echo's Flickr project, An Echo Year, is now in its sixth year and we're after your pictures of landscapes, wildlife and early signs of spring captured in March. All pictures must be taken in Dorset and the New Forest and include a brief description of where and when the photo was taken. 

Here is a selection of just some of our favourite pictures. See all the images submitted so far and join the group here.

Happy snapping!
