workshops/beaver photography workshops

A truly challenging but hugely rewarding day, photographing Scotland's newest reintroduced animal and the first land mammal brought back to this country - the Beaver. We spend the day using the argyll beaver centre photography hide which is great for Red Squirrel, possibly Pine Martin and maybe even Badger.

 We then spend the evening on a magical purpose set up canoe with Philip your qualified instructor, getting you up close so you can do some incredible Beaver photography.
