Male and Female Mute Swans on Loch Watten in Caithness, Scotland. Taken on Nikon Z8 with Sigma 150 - 600mm. Lovely way to spend an afternoon #Birding #BirdPhotography #BirdWatching

Had an amazingly exhilarating afternoon watching the Red Arrows training over the Tain Range on Thursday. Pics taken on Nikon z8 with a Sigma 120-400 mm lens - could have done with something a little wider but same zoom. Every day is a school day 😁 #photography #RedArrows #FunDayOut

Juvenile Black Headed gulls - one about to take off and one taking a bit of a rest. Taken with nikon z8 with a Sigma 150-600mm - very grey day so struggling for light a bit - still not happy with my focussing - off back to look at my settings.... #birding #birdphotography #ornithology #birdwatching

Puffin on the cliffs at Dunnet Head in Caithness - taken June 2021. Then been a definite decline in the numbers in past couple of years - Avian Flu and overfishing of sandeels being the main culprits #birding #ukbirds #ornithology #photography

Cormorant sitting on the pier at Thurso Harbour - I always think there is an air of aloofness ( is that a word?) about them, with the swagger of confidence whether standing posing or swimming around. #birds #ukseabirds #birding #CaithnessBirds

First taste of Winter has arrived in Thurso, Caithness - taken from Thurso beach looking over to Scrabster and Holborn Head - across the Pentland Firth to Dunnet Head and Thurso East
And somewhere out there in the middle is Orkney ( or the Island of Hoy to be more precise ).

Great spotted Woodpecker in Caithness earlier in the year - could figure out if he was just drilling away or maybe retrieving something it had stashed away for winter #birds #ukbirding #ornithology

Redwing in Caithness - January 2024 - pretty rare for up in the North of Scotland #orthinology #ukbirding #birds

One from last year in Caithness - I’m waiting patiently for our Fieldfares to come back. I’ve put a protection order on the berries on the bush in our neighbour’s garden lol #ukbirds #orthinology
