Ah yeah, I've been meaning to ask, what should I keep an eye open for in Scotland?Are there any interesting to photograph birds?
I'll be in St Andrews/Fife, Glasgow, Inverness, Wick and probably Kirkwall or Stromness.

Well,Scotland (especially round Glasgow) was where I did my formative birding. A lot of good seabirds (Gannets, guillemots, gulls galore, waders) and some good inland birds. One place that's easy to get to is RSPB Lochwinnoch, 25 min outside Glasgow on the train. Two decent hides, lots of birds (especially in winter) and a decent shop with a coffee machine. Kelvingrove Park can turn up a ew nice birds and they're often moderately tame, if you have a camera with you for that sort of thing.
