Isle of Man bird locations

 

Hi,

I visited the IOM a while back in August.

Best sites were-

Peel-  view the sea and the harbour from around the castle- Basking sharks, seals. Fulmars, Eider,  Black guillemots.

Calf of Man, check the fields en route for Chough.

Langness-  a nice walk down to the point, commoner waders etc.

Point of Ayre - manx shearwaters, gannets, close views of auks- beware the young gullemots and razorbills that look quite odd.

:)
