Speyside 24/7 with Ailie Brown and Roy Atkins

The Speyside Wildlife Trip Report

A wonderful wildlife watching holiday in the Scottish Highlands, where you will have the best possible chance of seeing many of Scotland's iconic species as we seek out 24 of the best birds and 7 of the best mammals. During this episode guides, Ailie and Roy chat about our 2023 holiday and magic moments including bubbling Black Grouse as Curlews and Lapwings called overhead; Great Northern Diver and the daily competition of 'who can see the most Red Squirrels before breakfast?'!
Ailie grew up in Inverness-shire so many of the locations visited during this holiday are familiar ground to her and places she has visited many times from childhood to the present day.
"Scotland is beautiful and we were so fortunate with the weather, sitting out at Laide Jetty in brilliant sunshine for lunch and seeing an Otter come on to the rocks near us was wonderful. The eagles were a little distant but set in the grandeur of the Cairngorm Mountains they looked just perfect and how Sally was able to spot them so quickly was amazing. Loved the evening visit to the Badger hide and the many sightings of Osprey especially on the nests was fabulous" Jean Brown, 2022
