Hello from NE Scotland (1 Viewer)

[burnie]

Hi all, a keen interest in wildlife all my life, fortunate to be in a great part of the country for bird watching.

Hi burnie and a warm welcome from me too.

All things Scottish can be found here. Also, keep an eye on threads titled something like Scottish Bashes; we try to meet up occasionally and they're always great fun. You'd be most welcome to join us on another if you can manage.

I'll look forward to seeing them Burnie, either in the Gallery of a thread in the Scottish forum.

Do let me know if you need any help with uploading them.

Thanks Delia, started a thread for the Montrose Basin area and will put some images in there for a start, I am waiting for a new 500mm lens to be delivered, so hope to be out weather permitting later in the week.

Thanks guys, a bit of info to give back ground to my photos and trips.
I live in Angus in NE Scotland and am only a mile from the sea, so I do a bit of sea watching

A rather poor quality image of a Humpback Whale breaching, taken from St. Cyrus beach in 2017.
I also have forests close by with nice woodland birds like this male Siskin

There are hills with a great cross section of wildlife like this juvenile White Tailed Eagle

Also a great place for reptiles

Though birds are my main interest when I'm out and about.
