We will meet in Crathie in upper Deeside and explore the banks of the River Dee before heading out in search of moorland birds and raptors. In the afternoon we will ascend to Glenshee pass where we will stop to search for Red Grouse, Mountain Hare and Ring Ouzel. 

Join our back-to-back bird, bat and moth identification workshops in the Cairngorms.
