Description
The beautiful cliff faces of this island form great locations for colonies of many different birds, including kavče červenozobé, buřňák lední, alka malá, buřňák severní, alkoun úzkozobý, terej bílý, sokol stěhovavý and poštolka obecná, with grey seals populating some of the beaches. Many of these can be observed quite well from both the island itself or from the water. Other birds, such as sýček obecný and bělořit šedý, are also present on the island.
