Buchan Nature

The flora and fauna of the Buchan region

The Buchan region is situated in the north-east of Scotland. We aim to photograph every species we see and our efforts are concentrated upon Aberdeenshire and in particular the Buchan coastal area of the county in which we are based. Scotland is a beautiful country and while many areas have more dramatic scenery in the form of mountains and lochs, the Buchan region can compete with any other and the fine range of wildlife is there to be enjoyed and admired for those with the eyes to see.

Made with digital cameras, the images used on this site are our originals and are copyright Opcop / Buchan Nature. If you wish to use one or more you are free to do so provided it is not for monetary gain and you credit this site as your source. Given the adverse nature of some sightings we are constantly seeking opportunities to obtain improved images. Over 420 species are currently featured with new sightings and updated images added as they become available.
