Description
The Solway Firth is an extensive and remote area of saltmarsh, mudflats, sandy coast, dunes and reedbeds attracting a wide range of wetland birds. Breeding and passage waders include црвенонога тринга, камењарче, остригар and голем српоклун свиркач. Winter wildfowl and seabirds include патка лажичарка, патка берија, жолтоклун лебед, Pink-footed Goose, Barnacle Goose, четириока патка, Common Eider, and divers, grebes, and auks. Also look out for мала бела чапја, рибарче, полска чучулига, планинско ливадарче and ливадска трепетилка. Otters are possible, plus seals, porpoise and dolphin offshore. At Grune Point the receding sea leaves tidal lagoons ideal for rockpooling.
