Crawton Cliffs detail

Guillemots by the thousands. They thrive on jellyfish. A city for birds here, here and all around here at the Fowlsheugh Nature reserve for a few hundred metres. These share the cliffs with their razorbill cousins (both part of the Auk family) and gulls. At times this is also the home to many of our puffins..

In excess of 170,000 birds inhabit Fowlsheugh at the peak breeding season between April and late July. This value places Fowlsheugh as the second largest seabird colony in Britain

Enjoy large.
