Scottish birder and naturalist who enjoys the hills, rivers, and wilder bits. Also to be found working at BTO Scotland. All opinions my own.
Just finished four events for @btoscotland.bsky.social at Orkney Nature Festival. Wonderful birds, stunning weather and lovely folks! #BirdingScotland

Well that's a wrap on the Scottish Birdwatchers' Conference with @scottishbirding.bsky.social. Thanks to everyone who made it such a brilliant weekend! Great talks on Saturday and fab birding excursions on Sunday- early Wheatear were found, Golden Eagles showed, and the Youth Walk was a riot!
