Got my tags all wrong and can’t change here. Sorry! Hope all those wondering why enjoy learning a little something about whales in Scotland. 🫢

Humpback whale photographed by @simonwaitland at West Weyms, Fife on 25/05, then 28/05 by @drewkennedy at Scapa Pier, Orkney on 28/05 We believe the same animal was seen in Orkney on 15/05. Travelling Orkney, Fife, Orkney in 13 days #forthmarinemammals #lovenature #citizenscience

@emilyhague @drewkennedy @Moana_Matron @HughHarrop @omri @EG_Cunningham @estherbrooker I know! I wonder what it was doing popping to the Forth of Forth for a few days? Was it coming to meet the other whale that was here🤔

@SamTedcastle @drewkennedy @Moana_Matron @HughHarrop @omri @EG_Cunningham @estherbrooker Wow! What a journey in such a relatively short period of time 😍 amazing that there are pics from all the different places to know this! 🐋🤩

Mediation is in the news more than ever. That said there's lots of work to do in making it mainstream. Scottish Mediation is seeking a new Chair to help us in that endeavour and if you’re interested, we’d love to hear from you. scottishmediation.org.uk/2024/05/24/sco…

Wowee!!! What a night. Aurora; North, South, East and West! Looking towards Edinburgh from Kinghorn, Fife 12:30 am 11/05/24 @WasJustSayin

@maffie71 I saw my first one of the year last night too.

After a long, concerning break, finally today we saw our first hedgehog of the year in our garden (Scottish Highlands)! Usually we have lots, pretty much all year round, so I was getting a bit worried. I hope they're ok. #hedgehogs

@pigletish Your mum sounds like a beautiful person. X

@walterjsinnes Glad to hear you got your treatment today. They do really pull it out bag, in what seems like difficult circumstances when it matters .

Thank you #NHS, #aberdeen , skin graft to fix the volcano on the side of my face today.... Great work, great team - friendly, funny, expert. Tankoo..

Portugese man o war. How can something so beautiful be so stingy?! #lovenature #NaturePhotography

CfGR have been working with stakeholders for almost 3 years to facilitate constructive dialogue to explore and build upon common ground in Scottish upland deer management. Collaborating to find workable solutions for the future. @ADMGScotland @ScotLINK @NatureScot @ForestryLS

We are pleased to see the development of new beginnings in Scotland's upland deer sector with the establishment of #TheCommonGroundForum. Initiated by @ADMGScotland and LINK, the Forum aims to set aside disagreements & unite with a common purpose👇 thecommongroundforum.scot/?p=170

Around 100 stalkers and gamekeepers attended The Common Ground Forum stalkers event on Friday at Glen Quoich to discuss deer management in a changing world and to try new innovations such as drone and night vision technology. Thanks to the Gordon family for hosting.

Happy 200th Birthday @RNLI! 5 years for me volunteering @rnli_kinghorn has been a community & family affair. So many dedicated people volunteering to #savinglivesatsea over the years.

@klondyker @Dolphinchaz @HughHarrop @f11digital @NatureScotCEO @BDMLR @MareeToddMSP @HWDT_org @Dolphinsighting @Blether_feather @HecMackenzie Glad you can finally get a bit of peace Noel. It’s sad things have had come to this, but hopefully you can move on now. X

At court yesterday Dorcas Eatch finally pled guilty to Acting in a threatening or Abusive Manner following yrs of abuse aimed at me & many others. Now on 6 months good behavior so please notify if she is still contacting/harassing friends & colleagues. Thanks for help & support.

Being a volunteer for @strandings is so interesting.

@bmcasey925 @whalesorg @WWF_Whales We must catch up! Been a lot happening!

@SamTedcastle @whalesorg @WWF_Whales I’m good now but, it was touch and go for a while. Back at work at least. Nobody likes X except for Elon himself.

Today a #Sei whale and a #Humpback in the #ForthofForth!! Great to see big whales frequenting our waters again. #Forthmarinemammals #naturelovers @whalesorg @WWF_Whales

What a joy✨️ to have the great whales visiting waters around Scotland, seemingly more regularly. I never thought as a little girl you could see so much from our shores - it's special to know there are little folks growing up knowing the UK has so much to see around the coast 💙

@bmcasey925 @whalesorg @WWF_Whales Ah yes! I’m not a fan of the new X! How are you doing?

@SamTedcastle @whalesorg @WWF_Whales Hi Sam. Glad to see you back.

🐋 It gets even better!!! 🤩 Sei whale spotted today in the Firth of Forth near Edinburgh, Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 As well as the humpback whale which has been there since 2nd December 🐋
