Field Notes

Description:

Although pelagic breeding birds start returning to their nesting sites as early as December but the eggs do not appear until May and take 52 days to hatch with fledging at around 70 days. Most birds go back to sea by the end of August, though I have photographed Fulmars here in September.

Habitat:

Coastal cliffs

Notes:

This viewpoint is only accessible at low tide.
