We’re always careful not to disturb seals during our time on the island. Disturbance can have negative consequences, including injury or separation of mothers from pups. If you see a seal, please remember to keep your distance and keep dogs under close control.

After being welcome by some peregrine falcons(!) we began the survey and were delighted to see 19 fluffy pups so far! This is still quite early in the season and we expect many more to be born over the coming weeks🤞

Each spring hundreds of thousands of seabirds, from puffins to gannets, return to the safety of the Firth of Forth islands to breed. Berwick Bank could kill thousands of them.
