Got my tags all wrong and can’t change here. Sorry! Hope all those wondering why enjoy learning a little something about whales in Scotland. 🫢

Humpback whale photographed by @simonwaitland at West Weyms, Fife on 25/05, then 28/05 by @drewkennedy at Scapa Pier, Orkney on 28/05 We believe the same animal was seen in Orkney on 15/05. Travelling Orkney, Fife, Orkney in 13 days #forthmarinemammals #lovenature #citizenscience

@emilyhague @drewkennedy @Moana_Matron @HughHarrop @omri @EG_Cunningham @estherbrooker I know! I wonder what it was doing popping to the Forth of Forth for a few days? Was it coming to meet the other whale that was here🤔

[Scottish Mediation @ScotMediation]

Mediation is in the news more than ever. That said there's lots of work to do in making it mainstream. Scottish Mediation is seeking a new Chair to help us in that endeavour and if you’re interested, we’d love to hear from you. https://t.co/ChtDElPbQB

@pigletish Your mum sounds like a beautiful person. X

@walterjsinnes Glad to hear you got your treatment today. They do really pull it out bag, in what seems like difficult circumstances when it matters .

[Sam Tedcastle @SamTedcastle]

Portugese man o war. How can something so beautiful be so stingy?! #lovenature #NaturePhotography

CfGR have been working with stakeholders for almost 3 years to facilitate constructive dialogue to explore and build upon common ground in Scottish upland deer management. Collaborating to find workable solutions for the future. @ADMGScotland @ScotLINK @NatureScot @ForestryLS

We are pleased to see the development of new beginnings in Scotland's upland deer sector with the establishment of #TheCommonGroundForum.

Initiated by @ADMGScotland and LINK, the Forum aims to set aside disagreements & unite with a common purpose👇

Around 100 stalkers and gamekeepers attended The Common Ground Forum stalkers event on Friday at Glen Quoich to discuss deer management in a changing world and to try new innovations such as drone and night vision technology.
Thanks to the Gordon family for hosting.

Being a volunteer for @strandings is so interesting.

[SMASS @strandings]

@bmcasey925 @whalesorg @WWF_Whales We must catch up! Been a lot happening!

[Sam Tedcastle @SamTedcastle]

Today a #Sei whale and a #Humpback in the #ForthofForth!! Great to see big whales frequenting our waters again. #Forthmarinemammals #naturelovers
@whalesorg @WWF_Whales

[Emily Hague 🚢🐳🐬 @emilyhague]

What a joy✨️ to have the great whales visiting waters around Scotland, seemingly more regularly. I never thought as a little girl you could see so much from our shores - it's special to know there are little folks growing up knowing the UK has so much to see around the coast 💙

[Sam Tedcastle @SamTedcastle]

@bmcasey925 @whalesorg @WWF_Whales Ah yes! I’m not a fan of the new X! How are you doing?

[Emily G Cunningham MBE @EG_Cunningham]

🐋 It gets even better!!! 🤩 Sei whale spotted today in the Firth of Forth near Edinburgh, Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

As well as the humpback whale which has been there since 2nd December 🐋
