Quiet moments, brief encounters, and the patience to notice them. Wildlife photography is often about waiting — watching behaviour, reading movement, and being ready when something ordinary becomes something memorable. From birds on the water to deer in the landscape, these images capture small moments of character, movement and connection in the natural world. This collection brings together wildlife photographs from Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire and beyond — shaped by patience, fieldcraft, and the simple reward of being close enough to witness the moment.
