I went into the hide fully prepared that all I might see would be wood mice, perhaps nothing at all. But less than three hours later I was nose to nose with a beautiful female pine marten. I couldn’t help feeling like I’d seen a unicorn; while pine martens are quite common in the Highlands, chances of ever seeing this nocturnal and elusive mustelid are low. So to get views like this on my first attempt was a dream come true! . . . . . #nature #photooftheday #beautifuldestinations #UK #scotland #highlands #cairngorms #pinemarten #mustelid #nocturnal #exploretocreate #goneoutdoors #instagood #naturelovers #ourplanetdaily #ig_shotz #artofvisuals #justgoshoot #earthpics #roamtheplanet #uk_shooters #wildlife
I am in my element 🌲 This week is the Wildlife Book Festival in Grantown-on-Spey. Having only arrived in the Cairngorms last night and already seen two red squirrels, a dipper and a stunning little goldcrest, I can’t wait to see more of Scotland’s wildlife, perhaps even a pine marten...
Though not the rarest or most colourful, collared doves are a welcome sight for me. There is a pair living near my house and they always move together, from rooftop to treetop. I’ve watched them for years and while it’s true that they may be different birds, I like to believe it’s the same pair that have mated for life 🕊 . . . . . #nature #photooftheday #beautifuldestinations #UK #exploretocreate #goneoutdoors #instagood #naturelovers #ourplanetdaily #ig_shotz #artofvisuals #justgoshoot #earthpics #roamtheplanet #uk_shooters #wildlife
Rumour has it that Jimi Hendrix released a pair of ring-necked parakeets in Carnaby Street in the 1960s. Now, the population of these exotic birds has exploded in south-east England. While London is one of the species’ strongholds, these vibrant parrots can be found much further out, taking advantage of seed feeders beside more subtly coloured avian visitors. Unfortunately, the parakeets pose a threat to native British birds including woodpeckers, starlings and nuthatches as they compete for nesting holes . . . . . #nature #photooftheday #ringneckedparakeet #exotic #nonnative #species #london #jimihendrix #carnabystreet #city #green #vibrant #birds avian #beautifuldestinations #UK #exploretocreate #goneoutdoors #instagood #naturelovers #ourplanetdaily #ig_shotz #artofvisuals #justgoshoot #earthpics #roamtheplanet #uk_shooters #wildlife
