2024/5 Winter workshops
December 2024 workshops
- Winter Wildlife
In December we will try to capture as much of the Winter wildlife on offer around us. Red squirrels will still be active, but will bury nuts. Otters will be around as normal and eagles will be trying to hunt efficiently. It always surprises me just how much I see in December. It's a great learning experience as light is often a challenge and it's one of those times you can really get to know your camera.
5 nights - check in on a Wednesday each week with 4 days in the field.
Cost: £950 including accomodation. No single supplements.

If we can take the boat out during a week, we will, but there is an additional charge for that - see www.wildwestcoast.co.uk for more on our boat trips
January 2025
- Depth of Winter
With the leaves gone from the the trees and the brush died back for the season, spotting Otters gets that little bit easier and with colder temperatures, animals need to make the most of their hunts. Eagles are starting to make their nests for the season and are quite active. The Red Squirrels are caching nuts and the Red Deer are abundant at lower altitudes. We should see plenty of raptors out and about too.

February 2025
- General focus
In the midst of Winter, but with the days starting to get longer, we should see plenty of Otters, Eagles will be finishing building nests and may be hanging out near the fields where lambing happens. The Red Squirrels are still busy caching nuts and the Red Deer will be around in big numbers.

March 2025
- Spring Waking
In March we tend to see a lot of Eagle activity, so this is a great month for seeing both Golden and White Tailed Sea Eagles. Other raptors start to gear up for the Summer and I tend to see quite a lot of variety. We are still highly likely to see Otters around and about, Deer are still in the lower land and the light often makes getting good images easy.
