A winter haven for the bright snow bunting
Experience white-winged migration in the Outer Hebrides this
winter.
The Outer Hebrides is internationally renowned for its
beautiful, unspoilt habitats and the interesting species of
wildlife that thrive there. Many migratory birds find a winter
haven where they can rest until reaching their final destinations
or find a temporary home.
Watch out for flocks of greylag and barnacle geese soaring
through the skies in their distinctive formations. If you venture
towards the coastline you might catch a glimpse of white-winged
glaucous and Iceland gulls scavenging the seas for fish. Another
winter visitor is the snow bunting, a more delicate bird that feeds
on seeds and and insects.
The Outer Hebrides provides a tranquil resting place for humans
and birds alike. So whether you want to adventure in the wilderness
or spend a chilled out day with binoculars, there is plenty of
winter wildlife to find on your island holiday.
