Summary

This week-long tour to Mull explores the island's moorlands, hillsides and coastlines in search of its birds, mammals and spectacular late-winter landscapes. Mull is justly famous for its raptors including our two largest, the White-tailed Eagle and Golden Eagle, but we will also hope to see Hen Harrier and Merlin too. We will search the rocky bays and inlets for Otter and wintering divers, grebes, geese and seaducks, whilst offshore we should find Common Seals and perhaps a passing pod of Bottlenose Dolphins. Red Deer are common on the mountain slopes and the landscapes in the crisp winter light are just stunning.

Focus

Birds, mammals and other wildlife.

Reviews

E.E. Avon, Feb25, Apr 2025

Mick was a fantastic guide. He was very knowledgeable about Mull and all of the species there. He worked hard to ensure that we had an enjoyable experience and that everything ran smoothly. The location and quality of the accommodation was superb. The views from the room were lovely, I could even see an otter from the window on some mornings! The highlight was seeing a family of otters playing together and relaxing in the sun.
