Happy birthday to us! Today marks A9Birds' first birthday. It’s been an exciting and fun year, and even the technically boring bits like admin and tax returns have been interesting to do for our venture. A big thank you must go to all of those who have supported us through the past twelve months, most of all our great customers. The Data Protection Act probably won’t let me mention them all by name (you know who you are, as the saying goes), but I can thank the friends of A9Birds for their various supporting acts and ‘wise words’ - Roy Dennis MBE of the Highland Foundation for Wildlife, Gordon & David Macleod of Aviemore Ospreys, Carol & David Shaw, Dave Slater of Birding Ecosse, Andy Smith, Jude and Steve Simms of Hellygog (the great little gallery which became the first to sell our images), Steve Hopper of Wild Skye Boat Trips, Philip Hardwick, Hilary Rolton, Gill Howie plus the owners of all of our affiliated B&Bs and guesthouses - see our website for details
