Description
The definitive guide to the birdwatching sites of Cumbria and Dumfries & Galloway.
The counties running either side of the mighty Solway estuary – Cumbria to the south, Dumfries and Galloway to the north – represent one of Britain's wildest places. Huge numbers of wildfowl and waders flood into the Solway each winter, but the region is also renowned for its raptors, specialists such as Black Grouse and Ring Ouzel, and some towering seabird cliffs, plus of course some of the finest scenery in the British Isles.
John Miles, a former RSPB reserve warden at Geltsdale, knows the region intimately and provides detailed reports on a range of sites in both Cumbria and Dumfries & Galloway, covering all the key wildlife-watching sites throughout the Solway region as well and many lesser-known ones, and also highlighting prime seawatching spots.
Fully revised and updated from the previous edition, this is a book that will appeal to walkers and birdwatchers alike; many of the site entries include walking routes (with many of these being circular). They also include information such as wheelchair access, and public transport advice.
