Wildlife Boat trips – July 2023

Visions photographers made the most of the summer to get out on a Boat trip to Troup Head from Macduff harbour on the 15th. A few more went on the same trip a week later. It was enjoyed by all, helped by the sunny weather. Captain Harold made it a great experience, slowly manoeuvring when dolphins turned up and feeding the Gannets some fresh mackerel. To be repeated next year!

Going east after leaving Macduff, first we pass Gardenstown or Gamrie to the locals

Next we see Crovie
