Hi JP just been watching your Scotland adventure..Really enjoyed them and learned a lot .Keep up the good work..Colin
Hi Colin cheers for watching buddy glad you enjoyed it! 😉👍🙏
This was stunning . The otter footage , I had to remind myself we weren’t watching a TV documentary ! With a touch of the JP charm yours was better . Thank you xx
Hi Victoria ❤️🤗 aww thanks hun! I think they need me on Spring watch eh lol 😂 xxx thanks for watching! 🤗❤️x
@@JPLamoureuxsTravelsI've only just come across your channel & joking apart within the first 5 minutes I thought of Hamza Yassin & Countryfile!! Now you mention Spring watch ....why not🤷♀️ Stunning scenery & some beautiful shots/filming. The Highlands & Islands are beautiful & unspoilt & the wildlife is amazing. Lets hope it stays that way forever🤞🥰
Hi Angel! X aww 🥰 thanks for watching ❤ .. 😂 he’s a great guy I staid on a campsite opposite his house! lol ell if you know anyone on SW put a good word in for me!!! 😂 x
@@JPLamoureuxsTravels I would have put a word in for you years ago! My ex & his friend knew Michaela Strachan, but I'm going back to the 1990's. A bit late now sorry. 😄 It's amazing how nature calms us down. Everyone like yourself & Hamza etc all have this calming, patient way & it comes from having to wait for nature to do its thing. You can't rush nature. I think everyone would benefit from just taking a bit of time out of their day, just to stop for a little while & appreciate it & all its beauty.
LOVELY really enjoyed the vlog
Glad you enjoyed it Janet x thanks so much for watching 🤗❤️🤗
A magnificent vlog, great video footage, JP, that poor pup seal😢

Aww JP, Sammie and Raven..
Wow 😯 you are certainly in Gods country 😅
How beautiful was the scenery yet again, how cute were the seals 🦭 and catching an Otter was fabulous.. I will never forget when I was about 4 all I wanted for Xmas was a big black blow up seal called “ Sammy the seal “ aww how I loved that seal 😃😃we had no pool by the way 😆😆
The castle and the grounds were stunning, just to see how clean the island is, no trash or graffiti that I have seen.
Boy oh boy great photography. Thank you for sharing 😅😅
Lots of love as always ❤️❤️💙👏🏻❌❌👋🏻👋🏻🏴

I managed to get a lot of shots of a female Kestrel having a small rodent for lunch yesterday, plus a video, thought it may fly off, happy days, not for the rodent 😂
Hi ya! Oooh Thats awesome 😆 happy days ! For you and the kestrel 😆😂👍
Luv the videos you are a very knowledge and informative person, all your walks are interesting. We will be a few weeks before we set off wondering in our motorhome😃😃
Hi Iain! Thanks so much for watching and your lovely comment! Cool as! Safe travels and enjoy! 🤗❤️
When I went up to the Highlands I saw an otter too. It swam along & came up on a rock to eat the fish it had caught. I was so excited seeing one in the wild & I managed to film it. I also saw two sea eagles on separate occasions & some dolphins in the bay & plenty of seals too. Absolutely beautiful scenery with fantastic wildlife. I didn't manage to catch a glimpse of any deer, but I knew they were there by the tracks. Watching this is making me want to go again. You are so lucky🥰
Hi Angel! Wow 😮 what an amazing experience! I love the sea eagles! Thanks so much for watching and commenting 🥰 x get back up it’s stunning isn’t it! X
@@JPLamoureuxsTravels The wingspan of the sea Eagles is huge!! I just love otters & when I was little I watched Ring of Bright Water & wanted a pet otter😂 I'd love to get back up there but can't at the moment due to health conditions. Hopefully one day🤞 Your filming & photography is superb & calming. I'll just have to live it through your videos for now😄 Anglesey has red squirrels & they've managed to eliminate grey squirrels from the island so if you want to see them I'd recommend going there. Newborough Forest & beach would be the best place to see them I would think. Now if you get to see the deer up in the Highlands I will be jealous😄
They call them a flying barn door lol 😂 we saw plenty of deer up there there are some in my golden eagle video! X thanks so much for watching and subscribing 🤗❤️
@@JPLamoureuxsTravels I can imagine & would think if one hit you it would feel like a barn door🥴🫨 I'll have a look at your other videos👍 No problem, thank you for taking the time to produce them. Beautifully done. I've sent this one to a couple of friends I know will enjoy it & appreciate it. Keep on doing what you do, you lucky thing 😄
Bless you you are literally an Angel! Thank you for sharing 🤗🥰
Beautiful!
Thanks Mary! ❤️🤗❤️
Love it. Nice to see the gull having something other than chips LOL. 11th and 18th Mar for my version of the Cullen trip.
😂😆 aye buddy they are certainly well fed lol..ah cool as ❤️🤗❤️ love to you and Lindsay bud x
Stunning x
Thank you! 😊 x
Good video enjoyed this very much 😊
Hi ya Christine! So glad you enjoyed it thanks for watching! X ❤️🤗

Look forward to catching you at nursery's say you last year but didn't chat. Keen on photography and have a EOS R great content journey well mate Steve
Hi Stephen you Should have given me a shout bud! Glad you enjoyed the video be nice to have a chat you take care and safe travels 😊😉👍
💜💜💜
🤗❤️🤗
Well - Utopia.
Such a stunning location.
I was thinking it looked a good Otter location. Some wonderful captures JP. I haven’t seen our Otters here since September. Might be because we’ve been away so much but possibly as the Wildlife Trust set a Mink trap on the main lake
Whatever, I was having Otter withdrawal symptoms until I watched this - cheers mate.
The seal pup flipper - yikes! Amazing!
You had an amazing weather day too.
Love those Brodick Castle grounds
Great little units there too. Leather goods and a brewery. Perfect
What a stunning park up that is JP.
I think the 25 diary is getting fuller 😉
😂 mines just got away on every page buddy lol 😂 thanks for having a watch bud it’s a cracking place you n Sue will really enjoy it ❤️🤗x
Seal burp nice!💨😂, flipping Otters amazing ❤️👍😁 are they the same exact species as river otters JP? Yes I love rock pooling 👍 takes me back to being a little kiddy . Muck boots rock 🤘Maybe Nessie has been round to the Island for seal pup lunch. Cork trees are in decline as wine trade moves to screw tops. Cork forests and their wildlife in Portugal have been impacted subsequently 🥴. What an Amazing place for exploring JP, the plants and fauna. Great variety, especially trees and plants from foreign climbs . Burnt bums on those slides yes😁 sphagnum moss , liked by mountaineers and special forces 🧻 red squirrels are endangered when your around JP😂🍺
Hi buddy! Aye same species 😉👍 well at least I can’t say you didn’t watch the vid lol 😂 hope alls fab with you bud 🙌😎👍
@@JPLamoureuxsTravels I know got carried away!😂 sorry for that 🥴 great video and thank you very much JP🙏☺️
@@Compo67 😂😂😂 cheers buddy!!! 😜😁x
Brilliant vlog again JP. How was that seal balancing on that rock. Certainly couldn't have been comfortable. Some fantastic footage of the Otter fishing, and those teeth amazing. I saw and took photos of my first Otter this week, fishing in a lake at my local Nature Reserve. I only have the RF100-400mm on the R7, but got some great photos of it although a distance away. Brilliant views again and what a place to walk around those Castle grounds. Looking forward to your next vlog and maybe more of the big 5? Take care and stay safe all of you 👍🏻
Hi buddy, awesome bet you were well chuffed with that eh! I think the old seals have a bit of padding for the rocks lol 😂 thanks for watching Steve 👍😉🤗
Really enjoyed that x
Cheers bruvva! ❤️🤗x
Wow how wonderful JP. Must be lovely to be watching those lovely seals. Great photography as always. Thanks for sharing. Was the first big bird a Heron or something else. How lovely and peaceful,around the graveyard area. I am not keen on graveyards either, definitely not for me when my time is up, don’t like cold or worms , so burial not for me. But something people can come to knowing exactly where you are.
Hi Karen! X aww thanks so much hun glad you liked it! 🥰🤗❤️🙏x aye there was a heron in there x
@@JPLamoureuxsTravels bless you thanks xxx
Just booked Portpatrick for July ... Can't wait

Goat fell is known locally as the sleeping warrior due to its shape. I’m so glad your enjoying the Isle of Arran I am so lucky to have it on my door step: when you cross to Ardrossan we have beautiful beaches and walks enjoy x

Great video jp very relaxing to watch thank you keep safe
Glad you enjoyed it thanks so much for watching ❤️🤗
Some great wildlife shots tonight JP. Nice bit of info on the camera set up too. 👍 Can you give me the name of that moss please.
Hi Dave, cheers buddy! I think the model builders call it Lichen Moss I’m not too sure what the Latin name is I’ll have to check it out in my moss book 😉👍 thanks for watching buddy 🤗❤️
@@JPLamoureuxsTravels cheers. It’s big bouncy type with the medical properties you were looking at. I have some secluded damp patches hidden in the garden I was of putting some.
@@davelodge4984 ah it’s Sphagnum moss lots of different types not sure how it will fair in a garden 🤔 be interesting it’s basically the moss that creates peat
@@JPLamoureuxsTravels cheers mate, I’ll do some research on it.
Have you set up in Lochranza Castle and see the red deer up close . And not sure if the one at the ferry is still about ❤ when it's still you can hear the otter munch ❤
Be over that way tomorrow hun! All my plans are scuppered as I can’t get on the Brodick ferry to ardrossan 😫 I’ve got to go back to Tarbert so I’ll be coming to Ayrshire in September now x thanks for watching 🤗❤️🤗x
@JPLamoureuxsTravels oh I can say worst places to be lol 😉 , yes and would be great to meet you both some time when up arran or Argyll. X great 👍
