Amazing views of this basking shark in the calm waters of the Moray Firth. Sat in a stationary boat as the shark slowly drifted towards us following the plankton! #BaskingShark #Feeding #Plankton @scotwildlife.bsky.social @visit-scotland.bsky.social @bbcspringwatch.bsky.social #Marine #Wildlife

Some lovely views of White Tailed Eagles on the Scottish islands this week culminating with this female catching a fish. Always impressive to watch, amazingly powerful and precise birds @rspbscotland.bsky.social @bbcspringwatch.bsky.social #eagle #fishing #Flying #Scotland #Islands

@savebutterflies.bsky.social lovely views of this Comma butterfly at Udale on the Cromarty Firth NE Scotland, a beautiful addition to the more common butterflies along the shore. Another species moving northwards #Butterfly #Highlands #Scotland

Hummingbird Hawk Moth on the Moray coast, something I’ve hardly seen before so delighted to find 2 in a few days, apparently becoming more common this far north. They move so quickly! @savebutterflies.bsky.social #MorayFirth #Scotland #Nature #Summer #Moth

Bottlenose Dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) playing with seaweed at Chanonry Point in the Moray Firth. This dolphin is known as ‘Spirtle’ and is famous for having been stranded and recovered @whalesorg.bsky.social #MorayFirth #Scotland #Dolphins #Play #ChanonryPoint

Delightful encounter with this hedgehog last week, out in the highland countryside, long time since I’ve seen one in daylight and away from the urban environment @scotwildlife.bsky.social @mammalsociety.bsky.social #Highlands #Scotland #Hedgehog #photography @bbcspringwatch.bsky.social #nature

Weekend visit to Handa to see the Skuas did not disappoint, whilst numbers have decreased it’s still a superb experience & one of the best for being able to watch them on both the moors & cliffs @scotwildlife.bsky.social #Birds #photography #Scotland @rspbscotland.bsky.social #Handa

Newly emerged Dragonflies: 4Spotted Chasers & their exuviae on a Hebridean pond. Amazing to watch them take first flight. Spot the smaller damselfly exuviae on the leaves @britishdragonflies.bsky.social @bbcspringwatch.bsky.social #Dragonflies #Spring #Odonata #Scotland @scotwildlife.bsky.social

Male Ruff in full breeding plumage, the white ‘ruff’ making him a satellite bird, usually on the fringes of a lek. This one, and a solitary female were on a loch in the Outer Hebrides, passing through or deciding to stay remains to be seen. #Ruff @rspb.bsky.social @bbcspringwatch.bsky.social #Birds
