Highland
The SOC Highland recording area is almost coterminous with the unified authority of Highland, except that it excludes the far northeast; Caithness. It covers Inverness District, Ross-shire, Sutherland, Badenoch & Strathspey, Lochaber, Skye and Lochalsh.
The area is very sparsely populated, with many mountain ranges dominating the region, and includes the highest mountain in the British Isles, Ben Nevis. Before the 19th century the Highlands was home to a much larger population, but due to a combination of factors including the outlawing of the traditional Highland way of life following the Jacobite Rising of 1745, the infamous Highland Clearances, and mass migration to urban areas during the Industrial Revolution, the area is now one of the most sparsely populated in Europe. The Scottish highlands is the only area in the British Isles to have the taiga biome as it features concentrated populations of Scots pine (Caledonian) Forest.
Birding The Highlands
The Highland regions offer a great deal to resident and visiting birdwatchers. The vast area holds some habitats of prime importance in national and international terms.
Plantation & Caledonian Forest – ©Chris Lotz
Ross-shire is a land of contrasts between the hard, high mountains and rocky coastline of the west where Black-throated Divers and Golden Eagles are the special birds, and the rolling hills and soft estuaries of the east where internationally important numbers of wader and wildfowl winter.
Inverness-shire holds a little bit of everything with an impressive list of exciting birds including Slavonian Grebe, Capercaillie, Ptarmigan, Osprey, Dotterel, Crested Tit, Scottish Crossbill and Snow Bunting; the jewels in the Highland crown.

(NB Please note that Capercaillie are in such low numbers encounters are very rare and reducing disturbance is key, so responsible birders will not search for them. So much so that disturbing them during breeding season (March to August) would lead to prosecution! Refer to this website for further information: ‘Lek it Be‘.)
Loch near Aviemore – ©Chris Lotz
Many of the special species that occur in Highland are sensitive, rare or have restricted range. This makes it vitally important that all birdwatchers who visit the area act especially responsibly when in the field.
Of course follow the birdwatchers and countryside codes and do not disturb nesting birds, and take care in sensitive areas. But also, please be very careful and discrete with any information you have been told or on species you discover, this information should only be passed on to the recorder and not put into the public domain until it is assessed by those who can respond to sensitive information and protect species that need it.

Abernethy National Nature Reserve
WebpageSatellite ViewHome to some of Scotland's most spectacular wildlife, Abernethy is a dramatic and awe-inspiring place. A fragile mosaic of ancient Caledonian pinewood, moorland, bog and mountain plateau, this reserve really has something for everyone. Look out for some of the pinewood residents, like the fast moving red squirrel or the restless flitting of a yellow siskin. Or head for Loch Garten and watch its most famous summer visitors, the imposing ospreys nesting high in the tree tops. -
Cairngorms National Park
WebsiteSatellite ViewThe highest plateau in Britain. Rapid changes in weather can cause problems for the under-prepared, please take precautions. This is also a very sensitive area for wildlife so take care. Visitor numbers are likely to increase after the building of the new funicular in the next few years. Montane species can be found during the summer with time, although they are not straightforward, this is not a quick stop site and plenty of time should be allowed. Dotterel, Snow Bunting and Ptarmigan are the star species and in recent years lucky observers have seen Snowy Owl. -
Glenmore Forest Park
WebpageSatellite ViewThis extensive area of forest holds an impressive mix of exotic plantations and ancient pinewood. All the pinewood specialities occur here and is a good place to compare Common and Scottish Crossbills. Loch Morlich is always worth spending a bit of time as it is often used by fishing Black and Red-throated Divers. -
Handa Island Reserve
WebpageSatellite ViewFamous seabird colony which is now a Scottish Wildlife Trust reserve. Magnificent Torridonian sandstone cliffs rise from the Atlantic on the north west coast of Handa Island. Each summer, nearly 100,000 seabirds breed here, including internationally important numbers of guillemots, razorbills and great skuas. These dramatic cliffs provide stunning ocean panoramas. Guillemot, Razorbill, Puffin, Black Guillemot, Kittiwake and Fulmars breed on the cliffs while inland both Great and Arctic Skuas hold territories. Access through organised boat operators from Scourie and Tarbet. -
Insh Marshes RSPB
WebpageSatellite ViewA RSPB reserve with visitor facilities including hides. A huge flood marsh on the River Spey just to the north of Kingussie. Many pairs of breeding wildfowl and waders use these wet meadows, marshes and pools. The birch woods hold a typical selection of Highland woodland species. -
Loch Garten RSPB
WebpageSatellite ViewRemnant Caledonian Pine Forest holding many of the forest specialities. However the main attraction is the pair of breeding Ospreys.

Loch Ruthven RSPB
WebpageSatellite ViewA RSPB reserve with visitor facilities. To see possibly the most beautiful Highland species, the Slavonian Grebe, this site is a must. Regular scanning of the loch will not only produce the grebes in breeding plumage but also Red-throated Diver which use the loch for fishing. -
Strathdearn (Findhorn Valley)
InformationSatellite ViewThe place to look for eagles. The long skylines and spectacular open glen offer excellent conditions, if the weather prevails for raptor watching. Wandering Golden Eagles are never far away and in recent years it has been a regular place for seeing re-introduced White-tailed Eagles. This is also an excellent site for Ring Ouzels, Red Grouse, breeding waders and upland river species including Dipper.

NNR Beinn Eighe and Loch Maree Islands
WebpageSatellite ViewWith a cluster of mountain peaks, ancient pinewoods, secretive crossbills and soaring golden eagles, it's no wonder that Beinn Eighe was Britain's first National Nature Reserve.

NNR Ben Wyvis
WebpageSatellite ViewA constant brooding presence on the skyline, the mountain of Ben Wyvis is a local personality. Stand on the summit and you'll feel like you're on the roof of the world, with the Highlands ranged beneath your feet.

You can wander amongst the pine trees, feeling the springy carpet of needles beneath your feet, accompanied by the chirpy calls of woodland birds. Elsewhere you might encounter ospreys, secretive otters or quietly serene red- and black-throated divers. Come in autumn and you'll be inspired by the mosaic of colour and the echoing roar of red deer stags. -
NNR Invereshie and Inshriach
WebpageSatellite ViewPerched on the edge of the Cairngorm plateau, twisted and gnarled pines mark your passage from peaceful pinewood to exposed mountain as you explore this reserve.

2021 [06 June] - Gordon Shaw - Cairngorms
PDF ReportBeata and I visited the Strathspey / Speyside area of Scotland between the above dates, as we needed a holiday and couldn’t travel outside the UK due to Covid.

I was keen to see some of the Speyside specialities, but aware of how elusive these can be from past visits, as they proved to be.
