With snow falling, I decided to spend a few hours at the woodland hide, and it was magical.
Email me if you'd like to book a day at this hide.

Crested Tit
After the recent storm, we headed up to the woods to check the trees and the feeders were standing. Thankfully they were, and the stars were already posing.
As I had my camera with me, I took a few pics. If you wish to join me for a workshop with these birds, email me.

Black Throated Diver
Dreamy conditions for photography but unfortunately that also means horrific for midges. I checked for a chick and nest before approaching (neither visible) and left after 10 mins, because I was being eaten alive.

Pine Marten
Despite spending a few hours in the hide since returning home, I've not had any more luck with this individual in the woodland.
There's now a second pine marten visiting, which has been picked up on the trailcam we have up there.

A very confiding individual, we managed to spot and then approach, on a day out on the west coast of the Scottish Highlands. Bliss!
A fantastic and fun-filled day out with my buddy @andyhowardphoto.bsky.social 😎

Great to see these a bit lower down in the trees for once.
