Sarah, Sami & I went up our track this afternoon with cameras and a bee i/d guide to Orkney (c/o Bumblebee Conservation Trust). Let's get the birdie bit over...
Very active basking shark feeding near Moness Pier, Hoy, yesterday. I assume that it is the same one that has been reported in the area previously. Large and...
It has been a fantatsic year for them over here in Caithness too with daily sighting. Hardly any cetaceans though. Â Â Cheers Karen ... From: harrayhen...
While taking the grandchildren around Shapinsay today I stumbled upon a wee gem of a pool. It is near Hilton Farm on the B9059 at HY492168 on the south side...
Hi Folks Another gruesome request - does anyone have a winter puffin skull, please? It's needed for reference for an upcoming book - any help gratefully...
13 Black-tailed Godwits and 5 Dunlin. Arctic Skua just missed the garden but 2nd Summer (I think) male Hen Harrier skimmed the Rosebay Willowherb. Some Mepit...
Seen and photographed by a visiting birdwatcher. I was at Burwick 4 to 5 yesterday and decided to head straight home rather than check Liddle and Graemston...

Well, managed to get a few 'birdie' ticks today (Morris/Tim W/Keith H) whilst trying to find the muckle swift at Liddle. Like everyone else I think? we...

In the area of Tomb of the Eagles 12.30 til 13.30 at least. Saw the weather was clearing to the south so went down to the Cleat Road. As the temp went up, I...

No sign 05.30 to 07.30 in overcast conditions - so no real surprise there!! Blue sky and heat seem to be the ideal conditions for this bird returning. Any Sth...
