Our trip to Photograph White Tailed Eagles on Mull will begin in Oban. You can either travel up in the evening and stay in Oban or can travel early in the morning. Ferry times for the trip will be given at booking time.
Meeting in Oban. Time will be given at booking and will depend on the time of our boat trip with Mull Charters. We will travel in my vehicle to Mull and the ferry cost is included in the price of the booking. When we arrive on Mull we will either do a short drive around the island looking for Hen Harrier, Short eared Owl and Golden Eagle or we will go directly to the boat meeting point. After the boat trip we will do another search of the island for the other species of raptor. We will return to Oban on the ferry mid evening.
The boat trip is an incredible experience. We will take a set route to search for some of the many local White-Tailed Eagles. When we are in their territory, fish will be thrown into the water and the eagles will come to the boat and then will dive and pluck the fish from the surface of the water. It is a truly amazing experience and a trip that I have done many times over the past 8 years. It never disappoints and you never get tired of watching these impressive birds.
Please note that the boat trip is weather dependent. If the boat cannot sail then an alternative activity will be provided which will include more time looking for birds on the Isle of Mull, if the group would like to we can also use the additional time to search for otters.
Lens from 100mm to 300mm for the Eagles. 300-600mm for the other raptors on Mull.
As with all my workshops I will be on hand to give advice on settings and various different shots that can be achieved. The group will be a maximum of 4 people so there will be plenty of opportunities to work with everyone one on one if required.
