Birdwatching and wildlife breaks in the Cairngorms and Speyside

Tuesday, May 5, 2009



Just a quick Blog entry today, with three memorable images of wildlife taken in and around the Cairngorms over the past few days...



1. An Osprey at dawn at RSPB Loch Garten from Craig Westlake of Deeside Nature Activities.


2. A Roe Buck misbehaving directly behind the Crown Estate office in Tomintoul.

and perhaps best of all...

3. The rogue White-tailed Sea Eagle over Glenlivet Estate, which amazed a group led by David Newland of Glenlivet Wildlife. Apparently, the bird circled overhead a little too long for comfort, before finally deciding to look elsewhere for lunch.

Just a quick entry today. I received a great image taken by Craig Westlake, wildlife guide from Deeside Nature Activities, which Craig took last night as he was driving over the moorland road from Tomintoul to Grantown-on-Spey on his way to do a talk at the Hotel.


The Common Gull looks slightly concerned (and a little overshadowed) by it's larger companion, none other than a White-tailed Sea Eagle! A great sighting Craig - I hope the tours you do with BWWC guests in the coming year continue to turn up such rare encounters!
