Made a rather wonderful companion whilst exploring the peaks of Arran today. Never had such a close encounter with a Raven. What immense beasts they are - a real privilege to share the hills with. You could hear ice crunching beneath its feet and every ruffle of its feathers 👌🏼⛰️

A rare glimpse of what the landscape could be when given a chance 🌳 amidst a sea of brown, deer-trimmed hills emerges the occasional oasis of regenerating Caledonian forest, fenced off and giving way to Scots Pine, Bilberry, Birch, Rowan, Oak and everything that follows...

It appears the Bee-eaters have not in fact turned tail with the bitter northerly winds and left for warmer climes: reports emerging that the flock are a few kilometres further north on the Llyn, sheltering in Ash trees and periodically nipping out to catch the odd bee or fly!

What a sight - over 60 Choughs in a flock near Mynydd Mawr this morning, and an encouragingly high number of fledgling young from this year too! Such a fantastic sound to hear. They were looking pretty hot in the intense heat of midday though!
