Hello there!

A little Sardinian Warbler who followed us on a morning walk for quite a few meters, diving in and out of the bushes and feeding along the way. Curious about our every move.

Lugged my camera and lens around on a walk this weekend and saw very little the whole way just to find this Spotted flycatcher hanging out a few meters from the car in the car park on our return 🙄

A couple of these dark, melanistic fallow are regular evening visitors to our garden and now it’s summer I see them regularly browsing on the lower branches of our trees and grazing over our lawn. They weave trails through the longer grasses I don’t cut, leaving traces of their presence even after they’re long gone. Sometimes if I’m careful I can catch them unawares, but they’re alert and often catch my scent. But they come back most night regardless.

Curlew in the golden light of evening up on the hill. The light last night was beautiful and not a breath of wind after the heat of the day. It was one of those late spring evenings when everything feels still, calm and cool as the sun lowers toward the horizon.

Back home and enjoying the vibrant spring greens of Scotland in May. I love this time of year, nearly as much as I love the autumn, when the fresh greens of new growth are out and the days stretch out ahead of us. We’ve had some friends up and getting out everyday and making the most of it has been wonderful.

Loved capturing a few of that classic flamingo 🦩 pose.

Greater Flamingos as the salt pans just outside of Faro. Their beautiful figure set against the morning light as it began to rise higher in the sky and the temperature began to soar.

Greater Flamingos 🦩 hanging out in and around the salt pans just outside Faro. Fantastic seeing these beautiful birds in the flesh, their pink feathers and legs showing strong when airborne in particular.

I was pretty happy to catch these guys toward the end of my final sunrise walk of the week. A few more images to come.

Another in that beautiful dawn light as the sun broke the horizon and set the water ablaze. This Black-winged Stilt, one of many, picking its way through the salty water searching for food almost silhouetted against the light. What a beautiful morning.

On our last morning I headed out at sunrise for a walk to the salt pans to try and find the flamingos. The sun was just cresting the horizon and suddenly the nearby pools of water were ablaze with burning orange hues silhouetting a group of Black-winged Stilts feeding in the morning light. This was the first morning where the constant breeze had dropped and the water was quietly still creating some truly stunning reflections.

I shot way too many images here, it was a real challenge to pick some faves but these two are particularly serene.
