A few photos from my most recent research trip - in the north of Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park.
Pine Marten
Standing tall to check for danger, as it moves through the woodland, and catching the last light of the day too.
Pine Marten
A few more images of this beautiful creature that has been visiting the woodland hide, here in the Scottish Highlands.
Pine Marten
A portrait of the individual that is calling by the "red squirrel" hide, in search of the food put out for them.
Needless to say, we've been adding to the food, so this gorgeous character has a supply too.
Taken at dusk, at ISO 8000, with a Canon R5 mk2 and EF500mm f/4 lens.
Mountain Hare
Nibbling on some heather, during a workshop I was running for photographing these wonderful creatures.
Common Toads
A few images from today's wander around the woods, watching the local toads making their way slowly to bodies of water, to spawn.

I've been away on a pretty successful research trip this week: functional public transport, very much walking, my camera lost and found [again]. This was the glorious, lumpy ridgeline to Beinn Narnain from A' Chrois, after a long ascent.

This illustration is inspired by a #documentation on the benefits of returning #wolves to #Scotland, they could hold the deer (and sheep!?) population in check so natural forests could regrow! Just imagine the #highlands a huge forest!

A couple of big crops of a distant one (when aren't they?!) flying off late afternoon.
