A red squirrel nibbles a hazelnut against the back drop of blooming heather. - Excitingly, we will soon be moving home. Further North to an area surrounded by native woodland which is home to pine martens, a few capercaillie and red squirrels! Hopefully we’ll be able to build a rapport with my local squirrels there and create some unique and interesting images which do them justice. - #buzzing #movingon #redsquirrel #headingnorth #cairngorms #scotland #native #nature #wild #wildlife #photography #photooftheday #followme #scotnature #scottishnaturalheritage
We are #proud to be working with @scottishwildbeaver , producing short videos to help people better understand this reintroduced native mammal. - #beavers #ecosystemengineers #rewilding #conservation #beaverdam #wild #wildlife #nature #naturelovers #scotland #scotnature #scottishnaturalheritage #scottishwildlifetrust #scottishwildlife #photography #videography #videooftheday #followme #bbcspringwatch - @scottishnaturalheritage @scottishwildlifetrust @scotlandbigpicture @scottishwildlifephotos
Happy world otter day everyone! - Beavers are a passion but #otters are definitely my favourite animal. Especially since a surprise encounter with this one-eyed youngster at a local Loch at noon last year. - I was reccing the area for Great Crested Grebes and stopped to photograph some Mute Swans in nice light when they got disturbed by something in the water. This #otter was busy fishing and was not bothered about invading the swans space while doing so. Unbelievably for the next hour and a half I had the privilege of watching this youngster fish, come on land, dry off and sleep before disappearing back into the Loch. With our holiday to #Shetland in two weeks time we’re hoping to have another unforgettable otter encounter on its coast. - #worldotterday #favouriteanimal #holiday #scotland #wildlife #nature #naturelovers #photography #conservation #photooftheday #followme #scotnature
