I've definitely got a soft spot for which were voted Britain's favourite mammal earlier this year, while the amazing certainly charmed me during our encounters. Those most intelligent of birds - - certainly have a place among my favourites too.
There are quite a few surprises on the top 40 list including less familiar wildlife sights such as glow worms and wood ants. But they all have several things in common - the ability to amaze and astound.
One of my most recent wildlife trips was to see the roosting in Mexico. This was a truly spectacular event. However, equally moving on a different scale was seeing a few years back.
I've been asked quite a few times what my favourite animal is and it probably comes down to (drum roll)...the mallard duck.
This is because it's one of the first birds I came into contact with and has a special place for that reason alone. But even more so because, in my mind, you simply can't get a better sound than a 'quack'. Whatever my mood, that noise never fails to bring a smile to my face.
So this leads me onto you. Which species among all our wildlife wonders do you rate most? Drop me a line using the form below to let me know what and why.
