Restricted Access
Please Avoid the shore of the loch from March- end July as it is a criminal offence to disturb the Schedule 1 listed Slavonian Grebes nesting here. (They occupy the sedge beds at the loch edges and are very sensitive to disturbance. When disturbed they will abandon a nest, then go through the process of finding a mate, displaying and nest building all over again so it sets them back weeks if they are disturbed
