I’m Steve Brazendale, The Scottish Countryman

 
 

I have more than 35 years of expertise and a real passion for teaching people about the countryside.

I do this through one-to-one and group experiences in falconry, archery, fly-fishing and countryside ways.

Thanks to a lovely client for this photo of me with Fletcher. He was my longest-serving team member but he died last week. A heart attack, but under highly unlikely circumstances.

A murky start to the day here in the beautiful #eastneuk of Fife in Scotland but the blue sky's building, so we should be fine for this morning's #birdofpreyexperience. Looking forward to it! . . . . . #thescottishcountryman #falconryinfife #archeryinfife #flyfishinglessons #visiteastneuk #thingstodointheholidays #getoutsidemore #trysomethingnewinwinter
