Loch Morlich, Loch Garten and Longhorns

Join Mark Stephen and Euan McIlwraith for the latest outdoor activities from Shetland to the Borders, plus the key stories for those who live and work in the countryside.

The Marine Protected Areas network helps to protect nationally important marine wildlife, habitats, geology and undersea landforms. Euan finds out more.

Mark visits the Logie Estate in the Findhorn Valley and meets their herd of Longhorn Cattle.

One of Scotland鈥檚 most famous ospreys, EJ has not returned to her nest at RSPB Loch Garten leading staff to believe she has sadly died. Mark finds out about why she was such an important bird.

Euan travels on the Nigg Ferry, one of the few remaining short ferry crossings in Scotland.

Loch Morlich Sailing Club are having an open day so Mark goes along to try his hand at sailing a boat across the loch.

Euan reveals the myth and legend surrounding the majestic Beech Tree.

Mark spends some time with photographer Philip Price brushing up on his skills and hearing about Philip鈥檚 passion for wildlife.

And Out of Doors was sad to hear about the death of a long-time friend of the programme, Roger Goodyear, organiser of the Scottish Traditional Boat Festival. We remember the last time he appeared on the programme.
