    At Snaefelness Peninsula we had Orcas from the hotel room, orcas from the outdoor jacuzzi and one of the fjords was full of fish where orcas and white beaked dolphins would travel under a small bridge to get to them them. We saw at least 4 Orcas including a large bull go underneath the bridge...

    LSW

    I had a “guaranteed” spot but that is no more now. I saw at least 2 and possible 3 there the last time I saw its on private land I’m afraid, which I have permission to use from the gamekeepers there. Not far from Linton bridge Farnley cemetery used to be a good spot for them but I don’t...

    Orcas - Northumberland

    Hi, I’m looking to do 5 days of trips from seahouses going 20miles offshore to look for wildife starting May 15th for 5 days. 8hours at sea each day. The reason why I’ve picked these dates is because early/mid May is the time that orcas have been seen off Northumberland several years over...

    Northern Bottlenosed Whales Greenock

    Lol It’s ok to not get the exact spot. Just knowing that it’s east of Arran is good enough 👍 Which basically means that my map skills aren’t that good

    Northern Bottlenosed Whales Greenock

    Thanks Delia, So it’s actually East of Arran. You wouldn’t have thought it would be that deep then?

    Northern Bottlenosed Whales Greenock

    Hi John, Do you know how deep the Arran Trench is? I can’t find out, Online, where it’s located. Only that a trawler once sunk there?

    Northern Bottlenosed Whales Greenock

    Someone said some stranded at the Faroes very recently as well. Sadly that’s one of the worst places in the world for them to strand. There was a report around 4years ago of 4 feeding in the Sound of Rassay in February/March a couple of years ago. I was meant to be on a boat trip that same day...

    Trying To Get Stoats On A Trail Camera

    Thanks John & Neil. It’s a small wood which has badgers & foxes living in it as well. I’ll try early morning to film the stoats myself. Thanks as well for making it clear that stoats are out 24/7(especially at this time of year). That’s good news I’ll report back with anything I get. Chris

    Trying To Get Stoats On A Trail Camera

    Hi, Could anyone advise about putting out food for stoats, to get them on my trail camera? I took an abandoned/lost stoat kit to a rescue recently. It is doing well. I had seen the mum moving the kits but she didn’t come back for this one unfortunately. I was hoping to get a video of the mum...

    UK roadkill stats

    Sounds about right - a gamekeeper that doesn’t have a normal amount of brain cells. A gamekeeper got sacked, local to me, last year for snaring a Badger. He admitted the snare was his but said that he had deactivated it. And his defence was that animal activists had put the badger in the snare...

    UK roadkill stats

    I’ve seen plenty of dead badgers in the middle of the road. And every dead badger I have ever checked has appeared to be a genuine road-killed Badger. Badger baiters(as long as they kill badgers at the sett where they have dug them) usually bury the bodies in the hole they have dug, to take...

    Fin Whales off Lewis

    Fin Whales getting seen by Hebridean whale cruises on yesterday’s trip (I think) The North Minch seems to have exploded this year with cetaceans. But you get your good years and bad years so it doesn’t mean that it will be like this next year unfortunately.

    Fin Whales off Lewis

    The killer whales went north/west past Ruah Red lighthouse when I was staying there on the 29th of June. However the couple who saw them at 5pm didn’t bother to tell anyone else until 8pm. Tomato Head of lewis next to the Bridge To No Where is the best place that I have seen cetaceans from...

    Whale Watching Madeira

    Thanks Tim, That’s a great list in just one trip to Sao Miguel. We got Sperm Whales with futurismo 4 times and 5 species of dolphins. I’d like to go back. We didn’t get a good feel about Moby Dick Tours so I’m glad we decided to not go with them. I had a dolphin species from the balcony...
