Here's a wildlife image you won't see very often - a picture of a perfectly healthy Mole out and about in the middle of the day. Sent in by our guests Lesley and Robert Wright, it's difficult to say who was more surprised!
A couple of great sightings on our guided walk today included a pair of Common Terns on the River Spey catching a fish and a Grey Wagtail feeding a youngster on the river bank.
The sighting of the day, however, has to be a pair of Golden Eagles spotted at the northern end of our current favourite wildlife watching hotspot, Lochindorb.

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.
