A great all round guided walk in Anagach Wood saw us take in
Red Squirrels, a
Roe Buck and
Doe, three
Grey Wagtails and a female
Goldeneye on the River Spey - but arguably the highlight was the 10 minute show put on by two
Stoats, still partially in ermine, frolicking on the river bank before they tried to cross the old Packhorse Bridge on which we were standing! They crossed halfway over before spotting us, freezing for a moment, and deciding against it. Great Stuff!
Highlights from guest sightings in the past few days have been a cock
Capercaillie in Abernethy Forest,
Badger at the Speyside Wildlife Hide and 2
Ptarmigan seen from the Viewing Platform at Cairngorm Mountain.
