Description
Burghead is situated on a narrow promontory projecting into the Moray Firth. The place is good for sea ducks in winter and waders on shore at low tide. Among the birds you can see are Eider à duvet, Harelde boréale, Macreuse noire, Macreuse brune, Pingouin torda, Guillemot de Troïl, Guillemot à miroir, Harle huppé, Bécasseau maubèche, Courlis cendré, Tournepierre à collier, Bécasseau violet, Huîtrier pie, Garrot à oeil d'or, Pipit maritime and Cormoran huppé. In summer the bay is fishing ground for Balbuzard pêcheur. Besides birds you can spot seals and dolphins. The Moray Firth is home to over 1500 common seals, and up to 500 grey seals come into the Firth in the summer. The Moray Firth is also home to the most northerly resident population of bottle nose dolphins in the world and on a calm day dolphins can be seen leaping out of the water.
