Another visit to the Cairngorms.

We managed to go up the Mountain on a clear day.

 

 

The only photo we could manage of a Mountain Hare without walking up.

So love the Snow Buntings.

 Sheltering in a blizzard.

 EJ and Odin made a return at Loch Garten.

 

 Woodpeckers put on a good show there.

 Found a better site to see the Crested Tits.

 Could not believe it when we came across a tree full of Crossbills (Scottish?) bathing in a stream below near Carrbridge.

 Hoodie at Nairn.

 Eating and keeping dry at the same time.

 Tree Badger and Marten thanks to Speyside Wildlife.

 Very distant views of two of seven Slavs at Loch Ruthven.

 Black Throated Diver with a Brown Trout. Stunning birds.

 Fieldfares at Dorbach enjoying evening sunshine.

 Fight on.

 Looved this Oystercatcher taking a bath in Lochindorb.

We even managed to see three separate groups of Black Grouse.  This one on the way from Carrbridge to Lochindorb.

The bridge at Carrbridge.
