A annual favourite, join us in 2022 on an exciting tour of the Outer Hebrides with our guest celebrity Nigel Marven . Machair teeming with breeding waders, Corncrake rasping from the yellow Iris beds, Short-eared Owls and Hen Harriers hunting along the roadsides and Red-necked Phalarope at roadside pools. This has to one of the best places in the UK to see and photograph these species, especially Short-eared Owls. Both White-tailed and Golden Eagles breed on the islands as well as numerous Hen Harrier on the moorlands. It really is a wildlife spectacle and landscape like no other in Britain. The tour includes a 2 hour boat trip around the secluded and remote coast of North Uist to view nesting White-tailed Eagles, Otter, Divers, Skuas, Black Guillemot and a chance of cetaceans.
