DB Scabious provides vital food in the late summer and Autumn for bees, butterflies and other invertebrates and it is also incredibly beautiful, adding colour and life to landscapes! #MullNatureExpedition #Mull #mullwildlife #MullTour #mull #MullWildlifeTours

We had an amazing day at the 'Scotland The Big Picture' conference in Stirling. Inspirational lectures from around Scotland and even from far flung Montana! We left feeling a buzz of excitement and hope for the future of biodiversity and the climate in Scotland. Everyone came away feeling that 'now is the time', and that 'no one is too small to make a difference'. #mull #MullNatureExpedition #Mull #mullwildlife #mullwinter #MullTour #MullWildlifeTours

We will be taking bookings for 2020 evening expeditions very soon... #MullEveningTour #mull #MullNatureExpedition #mullwildlife #IsleofMull #mullwinter #MullWildlifeTours #MullTour

It was great to see a small group of Red Grouse on the north of #Mull recently. The wetter oceanic conditions on the west of the country reduce the abundance of heather (favoured food for RG), so this species are in smaller more localised numbers. #mull #mullmountainexpedition #MullNatureExpedition #Mull #MullWildlifeTours #IsleofMull #MullWildlifeTour #MullTour

Seeing an Otter or a Grey Heron in a coastal environment is a gold stamp for a healthy ecosystem...even more so if you see both species together! We have enjoyed some wonderful #Otter encounters on recent expeditions and are hoping for many more with our guests this year! #Otters #MullNatureExpedition #mullwildlife #MullPhotography #Mull #mullwinter #MullWildlifeTours

It is always very exciting to encounter an Emperor Moth caterpillar up on the moors of #Mull ! #mullmountainexpedition #MullNatureExpedition #MullPhotography #mullwildlife #MullTour #MullWildlifeTours

One of the UK's rarest butterfly species, a Chequered Skipper on the #Argyll mainland last week. #MullNatureExpedition #NatureScotland #MullPhotography #MullWildlifeTours

What an encounter on the moors of #Mull last night...LONG-EARED OWL!! #MullEveningTour #Mull #IsleofMull #MullWildlifeTours

We have had a stunning week of Golden Eagle encounters on our #Mull Nature Expeditions! Settled weather during the incubation period has potentially helped with their breeding attempts so far. Lets hope that parent birds manage to find plenty of food for growing eaglets at this time of the year. Here is another 'Cairn Cam' video from a GEs home range in the north of the island. #GoldenEagle #mullmountainexpedition #MullNatureExpedition #mullwildlife #Mull #IsleofMull #MullWil

A beautiful Red Deer hind making an appearance on the 'Cairn Cam'! We will be looking out for the first new born calves on our up and coming #Mull Nature Expeditions. #mullmountainexpedition #mull #MullEveningTour #Mull #mullwildlife #IsleofMull #MullWildlifeTours

It has been great weather for Butterflies on our #Mull expeditions this month. Peacock (pictured), Green Hairstreak, Green-veined White, Speckled Wood and Orange-Tip are some of the species we have encountered. #MullPhotography #MullNatureExpedition #Mull #mullwildlife #mull #IsleofMull #MullWildlifeTours
