Eider Duck Day Rocky Shore Ramble

Grab your wellies and come along to learn more about the amazing rocky shores of the Northumberland Coast!

In celebration of Eider Duck Day, Berwickshire and Northumberland Marine Nature Partnership are running a series of events to allow you to explore and discover the places eider ducks call home, where they find their food, and how we can work together to protect these amazing and charismatic birds.

This rocky shore ramble will be led by expert staff from the Marine Nature Partnership and Space for Shorebirds, will take place at Amble. Armed with buckets and nets, we will take a stroll to the place between the tides, an other-worldly habitat home to all kinds of amazing marine life.

We will rummage through the seaweeds and rockpools, and learn all about how organisms who survive on the shore help support the wildlife of Northumberland, especially the famous cuddy duck!
