September is a quieter month for wildlife sightings, but there is still plenty to be found within the Cairngorms. One day, I took some guests up Cairngorm Mountain, but before that we wandered through a nearby pine forest and managed to see Chaffinches, Coal Tits and Crested Tits, with several of the Crested Tits coming to close range in some small Scot’s Pine trees. Afterwards, we stopped at another car park higher up and saw four male Black Grouse at a distance, pecking

Introduction It’s been a great month for sightings from the Evening Wildlife Watching Hide. We have been seeing Badgers, Pine Martens, the Scottish Wildcat, Red Deer, Roe Deer, Wood Mice and Tawny Owls. The nights are getting darker earlier and this is being reflected in the times the animals are appearing, with many arriving earlier than before. This will likely continue as the year goes on and hopefully we’ll have many more sightings to come. Badgers Badgers have been comin

Fair Isle might not have given us the easterly winds we were hoping for, but there was still plenty arriving on the island. Lapland Buntings, Common Rosefinches, Barred and Yellow-browed Warblers were among the highlights, alongside hunting Merlins and the first Pink-footed Geese arriving from Iceland.

Golden Eagle or Buzzard? Sparrowhawk or Goshawk? Identifying raptors isn’t always easy, especially when the view is brief or distant. Our recent two-day Raptor Masterclass combined classroom learning with a day in the field, where the group put their new skills into practice with some fantastic sightings, including Golden Eagles, White-tailed Eagles and Hen Harrier.

Ancient tombs, Neolithic settlements, migrating waders and daily Hen Harrier sightings all featured in our recent Orkney Odyssey. From the cliffs of Westray to Orkney’s sandy beaches, Craig and the group enjoyed a week combining fantastic autumn wildlife with some of the islands’ most remarkable prehistoric sites.

Orcas hunting through rocky channels, Humpback Whales feeding, Grizzly and Black Bears, Sea Otters and some fantastic birdlife made our latest British Columbia holiday one to remember. But for Darren, one encounter stood above them all: a chance sighting of one of the Pacific Northwest’s elusive coastal Grey Wolves.

August is a quieter month for wildlife sightings, but there is still plenty to be found, both within the Cairngorms National Park and beyond. One day, I took some guests out within the National Park and along the Moray coast. We started in a moorland area, where we managed to see Mallards and a Red Breasted Merganser with chicks. As there wasn’t much else happening, we moved to a lochside and found Mallards, Goldeneyes, Little Grebes and two Slavonian Grebes with a chick. We

August has proved to be an exceptional month for sightings at the hide, with Badgers, Pine Martens, the Scottish Wildcat, Wood Mice, Tawny Owls, Roe Deer and Red Deer all being seen. Autumn is on its way and, with it, I hope the sightings continue to be just as good as they have been this month.

A journey across the Bay of Biscay, four days exploring Northern Spain and one unforgettable natural spectacle. Julian’s latest trip combined dolphins, shearwaters and whales, with some fantastic birding in the Picos de Europa, including Lammergeier, Egyptian Vulture and Snowfinch. But the magic moment was undoubtedly watching a full solar eclipse from the Spanish mountains.
