A trip to the Trossachs Osprey Hide proved fruitful with three fly overs and one dive (apparently, we were lucky with the dive as I got talking to someone else in the hide who had been there three times and had not seen one Osprey let alone a dive). I only wish I had used a shorter focal length lens instead of the 500mm as I chopped off the Ospreys wings in some shots. A bite of bait in a picnic area after the hide visit produced some canny insects. Later that evening I went looking for Beavers with a couple of friends and it turned out to be a canny night.
