Your Guide
Hi! My name is Agana Agana, a.k.a The Nimble Birder. I began birding in 2009 as an undergraduate zoology student in Ghana, West Africa. Since moving to Edinburgh and transitioning to the digital humanities, I have remained fully immersed in enjoying and sharing my passion for conservation biology and the natural world.
I’d love to show you the birds and wildlife of Edinburgh and the rest of the Lothians!
Memorable Birding Adventures in Edinburgh
Explore the beautiful wildlife and natural landscapes of Edinburgh and the Lothians.
Edinburgh City
The city centre is a natural haven in itself. The avid birder can spot Greater-spotted Woodpeckers, Nuthatches, Goldfinches, Short-eared Owls in winter, Coal Tits, and more!
East Lothians
East Lothians is a true birder’s paradise. With a number of birding hotspots, we are regularly treated to migrating and resident sea birds, waders, and more.
The Borders
The borders region offers a wide variety of landscapes with good chance of raptors including Red Kite, Merlin, and Osprey in the Spring.
Other Locations
We’re always excited to arrange special tours to West Lothian, Fife, and the Cairngorms National Park in the Scottish Highlands. Just tell us what species you are looking to find.

Agana is incredible, he identifies distant flashes of movement in the blink of an eye and his gentle, caring and patient personality made my first proper outing an absolute pleasure!

Unbelievable birding tour with Agana!!! It was a great experience to learn so much about so many bird species what they do and where they come from. Agana, on top of lending us all his equipment was great to talk to. You could ask anything around birds as well as anything at all and he would know something interesting about it. It was my first birding and definitely not the last! I hope to join another one soon.
