We had a two week stay in Scotland the first week should have been on Islay, but due to the high winds we couldn't get on the island, so after lots of phone calls and gnashing of teeth we managed to swap our two weeks around.
So we started at Glenuig on the west coast, the main objective here as last year were the Pine Martens in the Cottage Garden. This is a video from one of the camera traps we put up, I have loads on the video camera too, but decided most were too big to put up on the blog.
Another regular visitor was a Badger, again here's a bit of camera trap footage:
So apart from this we went out most days, these are some of the highlights:
A mean looking Buzzard giving us the eye!
