@pixiepippi The fur is so soft, it's almost impossible to feel when holding it. I found a few clumps of it in the heather yesterday (maybe from them boxing, or scratching it out), and my client said the same. Very soft!

Spin Drift
A distant snow-covered hilltop, photographed from afar, when I was out showing my client some red deer in the glens.
I wondered if there were perhaps any mountain hares or ptarmigan hunkered down in those conditions.

A red squirrel from a recent visit to the woodland hide.
Email me if you'd like to spend a day in the company of the squirrels (and me), not far from Inverness.

Red Squirrel
With snow falling at home, I headed to the red squirrel woodland hide, where more had already settled.
This male helped me create some new Christmas card images!
Magical.
Email me if you'd like to book a day at this woodland.

Crested Tit
After the recent storm, we visited the woodland to check on the feeders and the trees. Thankfully no issues.
As I had my camera, we set up a shot and within a minute I had some images in the bag. Amazing!
Email me if you're interested in spending a day photographing these birds. Bookings being taken now, until March.

A mother Eurasian otter rests on her young cub, perhaps making it feel safe, but definitely keeping it warm.

Otters - a mother with her new cub, about to spend some time grooming on the shore of a tidal loch.
She was very attentive, grooming its fur and keeping it warm and dry, and allowing it to suckle from her too.
A treat to see.

Dreamy conditions for photography but unfortunately that also means horrific for midges. I checked for a chick and nest before approaching (neither visible) and left after 10 mins, because I was being eaten alive.

Meet the punk rocker of the tit family, the crested tit.
In the UK, these charming but feisty characters are only found in the Scottish Highlands.
This individual made my day when it posed in a near perfect manner, looking right down my lens.
This was from a day out, almost a decade ago, with my good friend Neil McIntyre.
