Loch Garten Osprey Centre
What's there to say? Not much apart from this is the place to come if you want to see nesting Osprey almost with the naked eye! The visitor centre has plenty of fixed high quality scopes (probably Vortex) for you to get up nice and close. The camera surveillance is the best I've seen of any Osprey project and there are 10+ live screens around the centre. The nesting area is rather an ugly affair and is essentially an Iron pole with a nest on top and surveillance camera looming over. This was installed as someone apparently tried to fell the tree the Osprey originally nested in! Madness!
Loch Mallachie and Woodland Trail
Cuckoo (heard)
Willow Warbler
Chaffinch
Greenfinch
Great Spotted Woodpecker
Crested Tit (lifer)
Coal Tit
Wren
Goldeneye
Redstart
Treecreeper
Common Sandpiper
