Hi there, I've been a bit despondent lately and I'm hoping to get back into my birding/photography which I've not done for a good year.
I'm hoping to kickstart things by taking a trip to Scotland as I've never been and as I'm a relative novice, there are plenty of birds including divers, skuas and puffins that I've never seen before, let alone things like eagles.
I was initially planning to go to mull to hopefully see the eagles, catch the ferry up to Aviemore to try for the Crested Tits and Crossbills etc around Loch Lomond and then head through the Cairngomes on the way home.
I have since discovered a three day birding trip via HeatherLea and was wondering if that might make more sense as I've little to no knowledge of these birds.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
I'm planning to go up around the 25th of August.
