Pauline, Forest Ranger

She loves that the forest is ever changing with the seasons; living and breathing, growing and maturing throughout the year. She will instruct you on how to spot the golden eagles, osprey, pine martens and red squirrels.
Rarest animal sighting
It has to be the pine martens. Our pine martens are always surprising. They are accomplished hunters and very greedy foragers. Having pine martens at Strathyre is a good indication of a healthy ecosystem and guests staying with us during survey time are very welcome to assist.
Favourite Scottish animal
The red deer stag. In this area we have red, roe and fallow deer but the red is majestic, iconic and beautiful.
