It was the sight of all those Redwing and Fieldfares that sparked my interest in this wee are but, the discovery of Nuthatches here was the real hook that dragged me back. I hadn’t seen them on the patch before at all and they were reasonably scarce the further North you travel so, here I … More December 1st at the old Oak
It’s November 14th 2024 and I’d been seeing Fieldfare and Redwing on the patch and knew there were a few Rowan trees down the lane that were heavily laden with berries so, I headed down there, see what I might see. First sighting, albeit through the branches, a Fieldfare getting stuck in. We have hundreds of them … More A pre-feeding post visit
I went for another walk yesterday, this time into town which seemed a good idea at the time but, of course, it started raining on my way back. 7.8 miles, the last three in wet, misty rain, Ach well, there you go. A good walk, some decent sightings I think but, as ever, the editing process … More Down at the old Oak
Comet A3 (Tsuchinshan-ATLAS) was in our news for a while and I’d been keeping an eye on when and where it might be visible in our skies. … More Comet A3 (Tsuchinshan-ATLAS)
Possibly the great finale? Sorry it’s been a lot of images and waffle but, I had a fab day and I do like to share that experience, the White-tailed Eagles experience was just something else. So. Where was I? That second Eagle had just flown over my head…. I was almost over on my butt … More I went for a walk today Pt. 4
Sorry, yes, still going but I’ll try to end it here. We can finally get to the crux of it today, why all the semi-secrecy? I was heading for the second gate, along the almost flat part of the track where there is a field on the right, today with sheep grazing in it and … More I went for a walk today Pt. 3
So to continue with my walk, I was really happy with the short session at the bushes with the Dunnock and young Chiffchaff, I could have stood there for ages, the Coal Tits were all over those bushes but moving away so, I headed on up the trail. OK, one last Chiffchaff shot. It really … More I went for a walk today Pt. 2
The sun shone today! No, really, it was there when I woke up and it’s still out there now, in fact, I think all clouds have been banished for the day at least. About bliddy time I say! SO Summer is on a Friday this year SO, I got up, got dressed (shower later) and … More I went for a walk today
August 29th 2024 – Off for a wander up the Ericht in Blairgowrie, we walk here fairly often and I’ve taken to spending more time on the banks now that I’ve seen Kingfishers, very briefly! So I parked up as usual, grabbed all the gear, often just one camera and headed up the path. Up at the … More Up the Ericht
Over the last few years of walking, exploring and photographing in Scotland, I’ve never gathered up and shared the images of Ospreys that I’ve managed to collect so, I thought I’d start here and share some of the images from my wanderings. Before moving here, I think I had a chance encounter at Lossiemouth West … More Osprey Encounters
