In this final instalment of my winter wildlife blogs I’ll be sharing memories of my time on the hill with mountain hares but first, the other species I’ve yet to mention – red deer and snow bunting.

In this blog I’m going to cover the wildlife enjoyed by my winter wildlife clients and myself in a fantastic pinewood. Within this wood I have set up a couple of nut feeders and enjoy visits from many species: crested tits, long-tailed tits, coal tits, great tits, blue tits, chaffinches, robins, dunnock, treecreepers, goldcrest, wrens, bank voles, pygmy shrew and red squirrels. Over the winter months there is so much going on, it’s brilliant!

Red squirrels are always a favourite with my clients and play a part in every winter workshop I run. Watching them bound across the ground, jump through the trees, chasing one another, and sitting eating nuts is so joyful. Personally, I never ever get sick of hanging out with them.
February was a month of wild, mixed weather but my clients and I still had some wonderful wildlife photographic opportunities.

It’s been a windy start to 2022 but I’ve made the most of it and was delighted to find a pair of crested tits to photograph.
2020 may have been a pretty terrible year on many levels but I was lucky to have some incredible wildlife encounters and I loved my first year living in the Scottish Highlands.
I’ve finally moved to the Scottish Highlands, and am loving it!
Little did I know when I headed to the Scottish Highlands in early March that I’d spend quite so much time photographing crested tits.
