The Otters have been putting on quite a show in Thurso this week and it’s been wonderful to see so many people captivated by them 🤎 Hopefully they hang around for a while!

Wonderful encounter with 10 Orca off the #Caithness coast at the weekend 🖤

@walterjsinnes Indeed, I thought that too whilst watching them 😉

@kasmunro @CaithnessBirds WOW!

4 of the 8 Great White Egrets seen at Wester near Wick today. @CaithnessBirds

Just saw my first Pinkfeet of the Autumn, Two flocks flew in from the NE of Thurso, approx 90-100 birds in total 🍂 @CaithnessBirds

A trip into The Minch wouldn’t be complete without Common Dolphins 🐬They have so much energy and character, alway a joy to encounter🐬

A Mother and calf Harbour Porpoise who approached our stationary boat in The Minch. The mother then began logging not too far from us on a number of occasions and the thought is that she was nursing the calf, who still has its fatal folds.

A few of the many…. other Humpback Whale photos taken during our trip out into The Minch on Saturday.

@cwpbirder Thank you ☺️ 🐋

@kasmunro @HWDT_org @HebrideanWhales @TruluckAtSea @HumpbackId Superb……

An incredible day out in The Minch yesterday where we saw 7 individual Humpback Whales, some of which were lunge feeding on krill. What a spectacle 🐋🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

@karina_kk24 That’s what we kept saying too as we were watching it 😂

@kasmunro @HWDT_org @HebrideanWhales @TruluckAtSea @HumpbackId Wow....

@BraidseaQuine Thank you 🐋☺️

@kasmunro @HWDT_org @HebrideanWhales @TruluckAtSea @HumpbackId Fantastic photo Karen.

@JohnSNadin54 It sure was a sight to see!!

@kasmunro @HWDT_org @HebrideanWhales @TruluckAtSea @HumpbackId Wow, that is amazing 👏

@mtnsofscotland Thanks Andy, I was sorry you couldn’t have joined us, but I see you still had a great day on the ferry.

@kasmunro @HWDT_org @HebrideanWhales @TruluckAtSea @HumpbackId Incredible photo Karen

@whale_nerd It really was quite something to see, the krill also gave us a seconds notice of where the Humpbacks would surface. However because they were shallow feeding, we didn’t get any shots of their flukes. Never thought I’d see a sight like that in Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🐋

@kasmunro @HWDT_org @HebrideanWhales @TruluckAtSea @HumpbackId That's amazing Karen!! Incredible to see so much krill up at the surface during the day!!

@highland_andy Thank you Andy 🐋

@kasmunro @HWDT_org @HebrideanWhales @TruluckAtSea @HumpbackId Absolutely fabulous 🥰

@shetlandnature @Theodec97 @PromoteShetland @NLFerries @Nature_Scotland @IoloWilliams2 @dunnjons Saw them on FB earlier, superb pics 🖤

TODAY’s AN ORCA DAY!! Live (ish) ‘back of the camera’ shots from @Theodec97, leading one of two tours we have running today. What scenes for everyone currently enjoying them as they coasted Sumburgh Head to Grutness where they are now, apparently heading north. #shetland #orca

@CaithnessBirds What a house tick!!

Snowy Owl flew south past Nybster out at sea at 21:05 this evening #CaithnessBirds

@GriffinWildlife @CaithnessBirds Was great to say Hi again last night Chris 😃

It doesn't happen too often, but last night I was in the right place when the mega alert went off to say there was a Brünnich's Guillemot in Scrabster harbour! 10 minutes later I was watching this little Arctic wanderer! Relief after missing the Portland and Anstruther birds!
