Description
Around the Fish Quay in Hartlepool gulls hang around, especially on the roof. Often joined in winter by Ισλανδόγλαρος and Glaucous Gull. In the harbour entrance (Κοινή) Πουπουλόπαπια, Κηλιδοβούτι, Παγοβούτι and Common Guillemot can often be seen. Sea watching by the lighthouse can produce a large variety of gulls, ducks, auks, terns, skua’s and shearwaters at various times of the year. The rocks along side the promenade are home to Βραχοσκαλίδρα, (Ευρωπαϊκός) Στρειδοφάγος and Χαλικοκυλιστής that winter in Hartlepool bay.
