Ospreys

Osprey Odessey

10/11/2009

Scotland is a nation of birdwatchers. Each region, each shire, each town and village has its own enthusiastic twitchers, men, women and children who share a passionate interest in all the mysteries of the avian world.

Wildcat

Scottish Wildcat

10/11/2009

At dusk on a bleak Highland winter’s afternoon, David Hetherington was driving through the rugged Cairngorm Mountains on his way home to Grantown-on-Spey when he had a close encounter with the ghost-like creature that had always eluded him. There, just a few metres away and clearly illuminated in his headlights, a large striped cat with a thick, ringed tail was stalking across the road, directly in front of him.

Beaver Homecoming

Beaver Homecoming

04/08/2009

If ever there were to be a beaver heaven on earth it would have to be here, in the rugged forest gorges of North Knapdale in the very centre of Argyll. In this sublime setting there is everything a beaver’s heart could desire.

Alladale in Autumn

Autumn at Alladale

04/08/2009

Imagine a great pride of lions roaring in triumph on the Serengeti. The air vibrates and the very ground seems to tremble. Now, imagine that same fearful, deep-throated sound amplified a thousand times and you begin to have some inkling of the primeval rumble that surrounds us here at Alladale in Autumn.

Alladale

Summer at Alladale

26/05/2009

We know summer has arrived at Alladale when we hear not the roaring of the stags or the high, shrill call of the Golden Eagles, but the excited shrieks of wee bairns out and about on what is probably the biggest adventure in their young lives.

Guillemot

Guillemot

17/02/2009

Going one better than their southern hemisphere counterparts, the penguins, guillemots are not only expert divers, but can fly, if only just. Their short wings allow them to pursue swift fish to depths of 50 metres, but they are less well suited to prolonged flight, giving it an air of frenzy.

Bad Day ay Bass Rock

Bad Day at Bass Rock

17/02/2009

Scotland’s seabird colonies can lay fair claim to be its chief ornithological glory. It has more than 30 seabird meccas, huge colonies holding in some cases up to a quarter of a million individuals. To anyone who has never had the experience it’s difficult to convey the overwhelming assault on the senses, sight, sound and smell, of a major seabird metropolis.

Year in the highlands

A Year in the Highlands

17/02/2009

Spring comes but grudgingly to Sutherland. We’re a long way north at Alladale and the winter snow often clings to the high tops well into May. After the long, cold winter months, we’re all on the lookout for the first tell-tale sign of spring.

Barnacle Geece

Barnacle Geece

01/12/2008

The trouble with a scarce species that likes to congregate in a small area is that it fails to convey a proper impression of its rarity. The barnacle goose, for example, has only three breeding centres; in north-east Greenland, Svalbard and in Novaya Zemlya/Vaigach Island. Each population has a traditional wintering ground: the Svalbard birds come to the Solway Firth, the Russian ones go to the Netherlands and those from Greenland head, as their first port of call, to Islay

Stalking in Strathmore

Stalking in Strathmore

28/11/2008

Stalking in its heyday might with justification have been called ‘The King of Sports’. The nobility of the stag, his strength, fleetness, alertness and bold outlook has appealed down the centuries.
