FifeForays

We now have a YouTube channel also called FifeForays on which we will be posting various videos shot around Fife and perhaps further afield. This is the first. Heron at Dalgety Bay Fife youtu.be/TMs0VFSr-ok via @YouTube

@MStaceyPhotos I agree

How beautiful are #dunnocks and so underrated. I love them x #TwitterNatureCommunity #BirdsSeenIn2021 #wildlife #ukbirds

Episyrphus balteatus aka Marmalade hoverfly (I think!). In flight taken with entirely the wrong lens (because I only have one lens 😂) but I rather like it. #Dunfermline #Fife #NaturePhotography #insects #wildlife

Young #hedgehog My garden #Dunfermline #Fife, early this morning. #wildlife #wildlifephotography #NaturePhotography

I just saw this fabulous sight of a Sparrow Hawk hunting at my mother's garden bird feeder. Shame I only had my mobile phone. Slomo because the whole thing took just a few seconds! #BirdsSeenIn2021 #birdphotography #birdwatching #birdsofprey

In #Inverness I found a #wren's nest right next to the path by the #RiverNess. Then discovered the camera battery was dead 😡🤬 So only had my phone to film the wren lining its nest. #birdphotography #NaturePhotography #birdwatching @BBCSpringwatch @WildlifeMag

In Inverness for a short break. I hope to get some wildlife and other photos but for now I want to recommend mustardseedrestaurant.co.uk Lovely meal and excellent service. Well worth a visit. #Food #goodfood #Scotland #Inverness

@blondiehippo I've only ever seen them on animals. I once rescued a young swallow which had got soaking wet & couldn't fly. It had 3 on its head. Nasty things but all part of the rich tapestry of life.

No prize for knowing this is a #redpoll but there is another animal in the photo. No one found it so here is a another cropped version. Can you see it now? #NaturePhotography #wildlifephotography #BirdsSeenIn2021 #birdphotography

Usually I get about 100 views of my tweets but for some reason my last tweet of a #redpoll has over 60,000 so I thought I'd post my favorite redpoll photo from a day in Ardfern with @Lochvisions #NaturePhotography #birdwatching #BirdsSeenIn2021 #wildlifephotography

@winterpitv I'm pretty sure it's a tick, not a snail.

@FifeForays I think it is a minuscule snail in beweren the White line above the eye and the eye.

No one found the second animal in this shot of a #redpoll so here is a cropped version. Can you spot the second animal in this photo? #NaturePhotography #birdphotography #birdwatching #wildlifephotography

@trampslikeus67 Keep looking but I'll post a cropped shot later this weekend if no one finds it.

@FifeForays This is driving me nuts....is it that that is not it’s feet you can see? Is that a beastie? 👍🦔🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿😎

There are two animals can be seen in this photo. No prizes for knowing that one is a #redpoll but can you see the other one? #NaturePhotography #wildlife #wildlifephotography #birdphotography #birdwatching

Learning a bit about photography with @Lochvisions today a fellow "student" saw and photographed a #redsquirrel kill and eat a #goldfinch Not so cute afterall! #nature #wildlifephotography @WildlifeMag

This pair of #bullfinches seem to have taken up residence in or near our garden 🙂 Not a great photo but nice to see them both in shot on the same branch. #birdphotography #naturephotograpahy #wildlifephotography

A pair of #greenfinches enjoying a little late afternoon sunshine in a birch tree. #HillofBeath #Dunfermline #Fife #NaturePhotography #BirdsSeenIn2021 #birdwatching #birdphotography #wildlifephotography

The #treecreeper is a lovely little bird with a very annoying habit of moving at exactly the same moment I press the shutter release! One OK shot with a beakful Taken at #DalgetyBay #Fife #birdphotography #birdwatching #BirdsSeenIn2021 #NaturePhotography #wildlifephotography
