Fallow Deer @ Loch Buie, Mull

TheTamshee: says that it's not only red deer that roam the lush moors of Mull. These shots of Fallow Deer Stag & Hinds were taken while passing the old school house on the road to Loch Buie. They tend to be skitish and will not tolerate people getting to close but patience and a stealthy approach can be rewarded with some descent photographs.

Common Buzzard @ Isle Of Mull

 TheTamshee: was well chuffed with these Common Buzzard photos because it is notoriously difficult to capture these raptors at close range and get some detail. Typically they will sense danger and fly off with that slow deliberate wing motion and take up a new perch on the next telegraph pole. Check out this Link for more photography from the Isle Of Mull.

Red Deer @ Isle Of Mull


TheTamshee: travelled to Oban and caught the Isle Of Mull ferry to Craignure. This westerly Isle is one of the gems of scotland; with an abundance of wildlife and scenic landscapes. The weather over the first couple of days was rather blustery with little opportunity to spot the wild otters around the picturesque lochs of Spelve or Loch na Keil. On leaving the ferry my first destination was Grasspoint where you are very likely to see the Red Deer and at this time of the year the rutting seasons is apparent with stags breaking the morning tranquility with bellowing roars.
