Description
I was amazed to see that the harbour at low tide is a popular roosting area for autumn migrant flocks of Сивка звичайна and Крячок малий. Large numbers of Люрик, Мартин малий, Поморник великий, Поморник короткохвостий, Поморник довгохвостий, Буревісник малий, Буревісник сивий, Мартин трипалий and Буревісник кочівний can be seen from the clifftop walk east of town.
Beyond the Seaton Cliffs reserve, 3 miles on foot from Arbroath, is Seaton Den, a wooded valley frequented by migrant passerines. Rarities like Вівчарик лісовий, Берестянка звичайна, Мухоловка мала and Кропив’янка рябогруда may turn up in autumn.
Cliffs can be steep, take care with children and dogs. There is a tarmac path.
