I've been lucky enough to spend the winter looking at and photographing short-eared owls here in Aberdeenshire. Thanks to @nature_scot for allowing me the opportunity to share my experience.

I like the regal pose of this Mountain hare as it stares at me, its amber iris and black pupil the most striking element in a snowy white landscape #naturelovers #TwitterNatureCommunity #twitternaturephotography

Male Red-breasted mergansers with the one in the foreground showing bronze highlights amongst the green in its head feathers. But will it catch-on or is it just a fad? #naturelovers #NatureLover #NatureGoneWild #BirdsSeenin2025 #TwitterNaturePhotography #TwitterNatureCommunity

A male goshawk, AKA 'the phantom of the forest'. Note that barrel chest made up of muscle and the strong thighs and large talons. A killing machine in the bird world #TwitterNatureCommunity #NatureGoneWild #TwitterNaturePhotography #naturelovers #NatureLover #BirdSeenin2024
