Descripción

The cliffs at the Bullers provide a nesting site in spring for colonies of seabirds, including Gaviota Tridáctila, Frailecillo Atlántico, Fulmar Boreal, Cormorán Moñudo, Alca Común and Arao Común along with Gaviota argéntea europea and Gavión Atlántico. Éider común may also be seen here, and Alcatraz Atlántico are frequently seen passing en route to their colonies north at Troup Head and south at Bass Rock. Grey seals may be seen in the bay, and dolphins are often seen passing by offshore.
