A look back at 2024. It was a challenging year for a number of reasons, but I had some wonderful wildlife encounter and trips, was involved in a film and shared the wildlife with lovely and enthusiastic clients.

The Ardnamurchan Peninsula and Morvern in Scotland’s west Highlands has captivated my over the past six months. Despite some challenging weather, wildlife encounters including otters and red deer made a memorable impression. The area’s richness has inspired me to put together an October photography holiday with local guide Peter Guthrie, showcasing its beauty and wildlife.

My winter wildlife photography workshop season has begun where I introduce clients to wildlife of the Scottish Highlands including red squirrels, crested tits, mountain hares and red deer. It’s gone well so far and the wildlife has been fantastic.
I’m now taking bookings for my crested tit sites in the Scottish Highlands. I have two sites and in this blog talk about my new one set in scots pine and larch woodland with bags of photographic potential.
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.
Over the past few months I’ve appeared on This morning and been interviewed by Nature TTL.

Autumn in the Scottish Highlands has been a season of fantastic colours and challenging wildlife photography. However both myself and my clients have enjoyed some wonderful encounters with some of the incredible wildlife we have in the Highlands.
It’s been a busy, photography-filled few weeks here in the Scottish Highlands where I’ve taken guests to meet my red squirrels, the dolphins, osprey and dragonflies as well as spending many evenings in the company of my garden badgers.
