Here's a tip for budding mountain hare photographers - if you use a prime lens, don't get too close to a hunkered down hare, because if it decides to stretch/move/groom you might find it doesn't fit in the frame! I was a decent distance from this one, but with a focal length of 450mm when it did move I was struggling - hence the close-up!⁠ ⁠ Please #followme @karen.miller.photography to see my latest images or visit the link in my profile⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #scottishhighlands #scottishphotography #scottishwildlife #cairngorms #live_love_wildlife #marvelouz_animals #exclusivewildlife #discoverwildlife #nature.lovers #bbcearth #bbcspringwatch #visitscotland #nikonnaturepics #animal_captures #mountainhare #earthpix #earthcapture @uk_nature_shots #scotnature #featured_wildlife #scottishwildlifephotos #femalenaturephotographycom #BBCWildlifePOTD #raw_animals #raw_uk

I made it to the hare hill today! Although, I confess, I didn't go up to the top. The wind was strong and bitterly cold so I was delighted to spot this hare lower down as I really didn't fancy the walk. Didn't do a whole lot, but did have a quick shake. Lovely to be back even if I was freezing!!⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ Please #followme @karen.miller.photography to see my latest images or visit the link in my profile for prints & cards⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #scottishhighlands #scottishphotography #scottishwildlife #cairngorms #live_love_wildlife #marvelouz_animals #exclusivewildlife #discoverwildlife #nature.lovers #bbcearth #bbcspringwatch #visitscotland #nikonnaturepics #animal_captures #mountainhare #earthpix #earthcapture @uk_nature_shots #scotnature #featured_wildlife #scottishwildlifephotos #femalenaturephotographycom #BBCWildlifePOTD #raw_animals #raw_uk

Went to check on the red squirrels today after all the gales/rain. It can't be much fun being a tree-dwelling creatures when the wind is that strong! ⁠ ⁠ To see more of my work why not #followme @karen.miller.photography or follow the links in my profile to visit my other sites & order prints or cards.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #natureonly #nature_brilliance #naturewalk #naturephotography #wildlife #wilderness #wildlifeart #wildlifephotography #squirrel #9vaga_naturemiracles9 #redsquirrel #cuteanimals #animal #animallovers #animallove #exclusive_wildlife #instanaturefriends #mammalsofinstagram #animals_in_world #blackisle⁠ #allnaturefeatures #majestic_wildlife_ #amazingphotohunter #ourplanetdaily #ourwildlifedays #master_shots #big_shotz #wildlifeplanet #bella_shots @hubs_united @aroundtheworldpix @big_shotz @ourplanetdaily @top_macro @wildlifeplanet

Red squirrel photographed last July when I was awaiting an appearance from the pine martens at @james_roddie_photography's wonderful Black Isle Hide. Beautiful, very natural location, for photographing both the pine martens and squirrels and the best place in Scotland to see pine martens in daylight.⁠ ⁠ If you fancy spending a day (or two) at this hide then please message me, I have dates in mid May and early July (and comment below to say you've done so) if you're interested.

Strong winds are making photography a tad tricky right now so here's a wee crestie showing off the reason why it's called a crested tit, photographed on the Black Isle late last year. Cresties are showing well this winter which is fab!⁠ ⁠ ⁠ Please #followme @karen.miller.photography to see my latest images or visit the link in my profile⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #scottishhighlands #scottishphotography #scottishwildlife #blackisle#live_love_wildlife #marvelouz_animals #exclusivewildlife #discoverwildlife #nature.lovers #bbcearth #bbcspringwatch #visitscotland #nikonnaturepics #animal_captures #crestedtit #earthpix #earthcapture @uk_nature_shots #scotnature #featured_wildlife #scottishwildlifephotos #femalenaturephotographycom #BBCWildlifePOTD #raw_animals #raw_uk #crestie

Fossorial Water Voles

Imagine my surprise therefore when I was told of a successful colony of water voles not on a riverbank, but in a small park in a fairly depressed area of Glasgow!
