It may be a lot colder in winter but there's still plenty of wildlife to see.

Here's what you can expect to see over the next few months:
 
  • Large flock of gadwall on lake
  • Red squirrels on supplementary feeders
  • Ravens displaying
  • Wintering redwing feeding on berries
  • Flocks of finches such as siskin and linnet
 

Visit the Lookout

The Lookout is our wildlife interpretation centre and is located in our car park.
 
Staff are on hand to answer questions and advise you on the best places to discover wildlife. Telescopes allow you to spot birds and seals and a remote camera will give you a close up view of nesting seabirds.
 
The Lookout is currently closed for the winter and will re-open in March.
