Scotland Wildlife Photography
Scotland offers some of the most rewarding seabird photography in Europe, with its rugged coastlines & remote islands providing a haven for breeding colonies each summer. For NaturesLens, this makes it an essential destination for photographers keen to capture dramatic clifftop scenery alongside a rich variety of seabird behaviour. Few places pack in such a concentration of iconic species within such wild, atmospheric surroundings.
Species NaturesLens Photographs in Scotland
NaturesLens runs its Atlantic Puffins of Fair Isle holiday to this remote island in June, when the puffin colonies are at their most active & photogenic. Alongside the Atlantic Puffins, this trip also offers opportunities to photograph Arctic Skua, Arctic Tern, Black Guillemot, Common Guillemot, European Shag, Great Skua, Northern Fulmar, Northern Gannet, & Razorbill, all present on Fair Isle during this period. It's a trip built around the golden window when Scotland's seabird cliffs are at their liveliest & most rewarding for photographers.
