Evening events...
THE ISLE OF MULL WILDLIFE EXPEDITION with IOLO WILLIAMS On our evening tour we saw a large movement of Palmate Newts crossing the road at dusk. This enticed a number of Hedgehogs to take advantage of the amphibian prey. We stopped to check on one Hedgehog which appeared to be stunned/injured on the side of the road. We put it into some rough vegetation as it seemed to be okay. #MullEveningTour #mull #MullNatureExpedition #mullwildlife #IoloWilliams

Once in a Lifetime...
During a wildlife excursion on the Isle of Mull this Autumn we observed a ‘once in a lifetime’ natural spectacle. It was mid-afternoon and we were travelling west alongside one of Mull’s many sea lochs, which indent the island greatly. I was scanning the terraced skyline and spotted a large bird stooping down vigorously at something on ground level which was out of view. The general profile and behaviour of the bird confirmed that this was a Golden Eagle and it was in hunting

Noble birds...
We had wonderful encounters with eagles on yesterdays tour which included two pairs of White-tailed Eagles taking advantage of the elements along with three Golden Eagles (2 adults and their 1st winter bird) riding a thermal, interacting with Ravens and also being very vocal for over 20 minutes! This photo is of an adult male White-tailed Eagle which I photographed on the north shore of Mull earlier this month. #NatureScotland #MullWildlifeTour #MullWildlifeTours #ScotlandWil
