Description
Barry Buddon is a huge M.O.D. (Ministry of Defence) training area with extensive coastal dunes, forest belts, birch scrub, heather, grassland and river outflow into the Tay estuary. Good for gulls, terns, waders, roosting geese in winter and migrant passerines. Often good numbers of Dvergmåke in late summer. But the area is year round of interest. Rarities like Hærfugl and Fjellerke have been observed here in the past.
