- Join me on an exhilarating adventure as I journey into the heart of the Cairngorm Mountains in Scotland, specifically the breathtaking Findhorn Valley, in search of the elusive mountain hare. This mystical creature, adorned in its white winter coat, blends seamlessly with the snow-covered landscape, making it a true challenge to spot and photograph.
Armed with my trusty Nikon Z9 camera and Nikon Z 400mm f/2.8TC lens, I set out on a quest to capture the beauty and grace of these elusive hares against the stunning backdrop of the Scottish Highlands. As I navigate through the rugged terrain and traverse the snowy slopes, each step brings me closer to encountering these magnificent creatures in their natural habitat.
Throughout the video, I share insights into the behavior and habitat of the mountain hare, as well as tips and techniques for capturing stunning wildlife photography in challenging conditions. From adjusting camera settings to anticipating the hare's movements, every moment is a thrilling opportunity to witness nature's wonders up close.
With each click of the shutter, I strive to immortalize the fleeting moments of these magnificent creatures, preserving their essence in the frozen landscape of the Cairngorm Mountains.
Join me on this unforgettable journey as we embark on a quest to witness the magic of the mountain hare in the winter wonderland of Scotland's Findhorn Valley.

Hi Dan, I was up in the Cairngorms in that same spot but left Scotland around the same time you arrived! I am also a young wildlife photographer, so I'm quite jealous of Alfie for getting to meet you. Great video, great images!
Thanks very much Johann, if you ever see me out and about please do come and say hello it would be great to meet you 👍🏻
Nice to see the "bins" in evidence Dan, after my comment from a couple of videos ago asking if you owned a pair of optics. Like how you've got them attached. 👍
Thanks Glenn, I’ve tried to make it more habit to have them with me so thanks to you 👍🏻
Great video Dan. Was in the same location last summer looking for birds of prey. Cheers Keith

It’s a cracking valley, also known as Raptor valley so somewhere worth visiting in the spring 👍🏻

Beautiful light on those hares.
Thanks very much Charles 👍🏻
Another excellent video.
Thanks very much Sheila ☺️
Great video, on my bucket list to photo mountain hare and visit Findhorn Valley. We also have a MH and I have virtually driven the roads contemplating during it up there. I guess you had no issues with the drive
Thank you. No problems at all with the MH, although it’s a single track lane there’s plenty of passing places 👍🏻
Great video Dan .. what Bino harness are you using please
Thanks very much. The harness is from Cotton Carriers, they are available on Amazon 👍🏻
I enjoyed the video.
Glad you enjoyed it Ian 👍🏻
Dan where did you park for the Findhorn valley?
I parked right at the top of the valley just before the bridge 👍🏻
To watch you and Ashley too fantastic photographer’s.. how many parts is there lol 😂
Final part coming next Sunday, figured 3 shorter videos would be better than one very long one.
All the best 👍🏻
