Summary
edit
| Description |
English: Duich Moss National Nature Reserve. Eilean na Muice Duibhe is located on the Hebridean island of Islay on the west coast of Scotland. It is a patterned mire (peatland with extensive pool systems) occurring at the south-western limit of the distribution of this peatland habitat in the UK. The diverse nature of the peatland habitat includes hummocks, ridges and deep watershed pools as well as an unusual transition from blanket bog to raised mire habitats. Eilean na Muice Duibhe is one of the largest single roost sites in the UK for Greenland White-fronted Goose Anser albifrons flavirostris. The main feeding grounds for these birds are on surrounding agricultural areas although significant feeding also occurs on the roost site. |
