It was lovely to return to the West Coast of Scotland for a week in November 2024. Morvern has become one of my favourite places and it’s always a joy to go back especially when the weather was cold and the wildlife plentiful.
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.

Readers of this blog or followers on social media will be aware how much I love spending quality time with mountain hares. The setting is stunning (especially this year when coated in a thick blanket of snow) and it’s wonderful just to sit with a hare as time passes by – even when the hare does little more than twitch and do a half-hearted groom in 3 hours whilst we survive a blizzard and biting cold winds together!
