Summer 2023: Normally Nocturnal Wildlife
Over the summer months I enjoyed spending time with local pine martens and badgers, both species normally nocturnal. Wonderful creatures.

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!

May and June have been busy months for me in the Scottish Highlands photographing and guiding clients to a wide variety of subjects including mountain hares, osprey, dolphins, common seals, badgers and pine marten.
I’ve written an article for Nature TTL about what to photograph in the Scottish Highlands over the summer. If you are visiting then I offer workshops and have rental accommodation.

Watching red squirrels is good for the soul! I’ve therefore introduced a 3 day residential workshop to photograph these wonderful creatures in a couple of very different locations in the Scottish Highlands. Join me, Karen Miller, a professional wildlife photographer and red squirrel expert for three fantastic days in the company of the squirrels.
I haven’t travelled far over the summer from my home in the Scottish Highlands, but there’s been no need to! I’ve enjoyed the company of red squirrels, badgers, rabbits, pine martens and mountain hares amongst other amazing experiences.
Karen Miller is pleased to announce the opening of her new short-stay rental cabin “The Drey Inchberry” in the heart of the Scottish Highlands. Ideally suited to photographers and nature lovers.
