A beautiful, fresh morning set a great stage for our guided walk in Anagach Wood which brought its own rewards. Red Squirrels were still visible in their favourite corner in the south-west fringe of the wood despite a large-scale orienteering event, which also stirred up the Roe Deer.
The Spey is starting to get busy again after a lull, with a small party of Goosander visible from the old Spey Bridge as they preened themselves on the top of the few boulders left poking out of the swollen river.
Away from the orienteers, large mixed parties of tits provided great views, particularly of Long-tailed Tits. We also got numerous good views of Treecreepers which seem to have had a very succesful season, along with Goldcrests which are everywhere just now.

The BWWC

Millions of people now enjoy bird and wildlife watching. For some it’s a consuming passion. For others it is just an excuse for a good walk.

Located in the Cairngorms, one of the most beautiful regions of the Scottish Highlands the Bird Watching and Wildlife Club is ideally placed to provide truly outstanding wildlife breaks.

The Bird Watching and Wildlife Club is there for anyone interested in wildlife, from beginners to dedicated twitchers.

We are able to provide quality wildlife breaks that offer reasonably priced and comfortable accommodation for our guests at he Grant Arms Hotel which we have recently taken over and extensively refurbished.

For those who want to go off each day by themselves we can advise what is around, where to go and the best time to see it.
