See these creatures and more from the comfort of Air an Oir!
You otter see this…
One night recently, our car park camera was tripped by two young otters playing. They can often be seen hunting in the bay below the house, along with seals and numerous seabirds. We have regular visits from a variety of wildlife including the occasional red deer.
Pine martens…
Pine martens are elusive animals but some have become nightly visitors to Air an Oir and have been feeding on peanuts, grapes and eggs left in our feeder right outside the lounge window. They are also partial to peanut butter and jam sandwiches. This clip was filmed by some guests.
New tune called Air an Oir…
Here you can listen to a specially composed tune by top band Folky MacFolk Face after one of their talented musicians stayed at Air an Oir. Look out for their album of the same name coming out soon!
