Scottish wildlife hides – kingfisher hide

Kingfisher

Contact Details

  

Description

No walking is required as the car can be parked right outside the hide with toilet facilities in the car park. This 3 person purpose built hide has plenty of room for gimbal heads but with a full house tripods can take up too much room. Remotes are advised. Beanbags are provided. Taking diving kingfisher shots requires all photographers to agree as the set up needs to be altered to suit. Static photos will be no problem.

Diving shots are taken from INSIDE the hide to allow you to alter settings if required.  200mm lens is sufficient.

Static shots require 300-500mm lenses.

Open all year warm clothing is advised in winter months.
