点评:I had been looking forward to this trip for a while and the experience did not disappoint. I had booked both hides for a whole day experience and would recommend bringing lunch with you to get the maximum time in the hides.
The walk to the woodland hides is over a couple of fields and is muddy if it is raining ( remember, it’s Scotland) so waterproof shoes at minimum or wellies made a difference.
The range of wildlife seen at the woodland area is a great for photographers. From the cute red squirrels to multiple small birds and woodpeckers, they made our day. We started with just one red squirrel and eventually had 6 running around. More than enough to keep your shutters clicking. If it is a dull day the lighting can be low.
After lunch we headed to the Red Kite photo hide, another well made hide with seating. Again, the wildlife did not disappoint. We had almost two hours of red kites flying around, with the odd crow getting into the action. These beautiful birds put on such a great show for us.
Would recommend Argaty for any photographers in the area on vacation or otherwise. A couple of caveats, bring spare batteries as there is no power in the hides. Plan for low light at the woodland hide.
Overall an excellent experience.
翻译:我期待这次旅行很久了,而这次体验也确实没有让我失望。我预订了两个观景台,打算体验一整天。建议大家自带午餐,这样才能在观景台上待的时间更长。
前往林间观景台的路要穿过几片田地,如果下雨的话路面会很泥泞(别忘了,这里是苏格兰),所以至少要穿防水鞋,最好是雨靴。
林间野生动物种类繁多,非常适合摄影爱好者。从可爱的红松鼠到各种各样的小鸟和啄木鸟,它们让我们的旅程充满乐趣。我们一开始只看到一只红松鼠,后来竟然有六只在周围跑来跑去。数量之多,足以让你不停地按下快门。如果天气阴沉,光线可能会比较暗。
午餐后,我们前往红鸢观景台,那里的设施也很完善,还设有座椅。野生动物同样没有让我们失望。我们花了将近两个小时观察红鸢在空中飞翔,偶尔还能看到几只乌鸦加入其中。这些美丽的鸟儿为我们奉献了一场精彩的表演。
强烈推荐阿加蒂(Argaty)给所有在附近度假或旅行的摄影爱好者。需要注意的是,由于隐蔽处没有电源,请携带备用电池。林地隐蔽处的光线较暗,请做好应对准备。
总体而言,这是一次非常棒的体验。
