June is one of our busiest months for day guiding in Speyside. The summer visitors are all here and there are lots of breeding birds around and lots of wildflowers. One day guide started off with a request to see Crested Tit and Crossbill before going up Cairngorm and looking for mountain species. We began early and managed to hear Crossbills but not see them. We walked around and managed to briefly see and hear a Common Redstart. We wandered an area with smaller pines lookin

Our inaugural spring holiday to Öland exceeded expectations, combining superb birdwatching, spectacular orchids, beautiful limestone landscapes and exceptional hospitality. Roy shares the highlights from a memorable week that included Montagu's Harriers, Collared Flycatchers and visits to the island's renowned bird observatory.
