Description
Nestled at the southernmost tip of Scotland, the Mull of Galloway feels like an island with spectacular panoramic views wherever you turn. Ireland, the Isle of Man, Cumbria and Galloway can all be seen, as can the Scar Rocks, an outlying part of the reserve with a small terej bílý colony. The reserve consists of clifftop grassland and heath, surrounded by steep cliffs where seabirds make their homes. The clifftop habitats are important for a number of plant species, including sping squill, thrift, purple milk vetch and sea spleenwort. konopka žlutozobá sometimes breed in the heathland, as do bělořit šedý, konopka obecná and bramborníček černohlavý . The seabird cliffs are home to locally important colonies of alkoun úzkozobý, alka malá, racek tříprstý, kormorán chocholatý and alkoun obecný. krkavec velký and sokol stěhovavý are also regularly seen around the cliffs. The Scar Rocks are mostly inhabited by around 4,000 terej bílý.
