Dunoon and the surrounding Cowal Peninsula in Argyll and Bute offer a wealth of opportunities to experience Scottish wildlife. Here's a glimpse of what you might find:
* **Holy Loch:** The head of Holy Loch, especially the mudflats at Sandbank, is excellent for birdwatching. You might spot curlews, oystercatchers, wigeon, and red-breasted mergansers. There's a bird hide at Broxwood for better viewing.
* **Puck's Glen:** This magical woodland with gorges and waterfalls is another habitat for red squirrels.
**Nature Reserves and Trails:**
* **Holy Loch Nature Reserve:** A community-run reserve mainly for birdwatching, with saltmarsh, wildflower meadows, and woodland habitats.
To increase your chances of seeing wildlife, remember to be patient, quiet, and observe from a distance. Dawn and dusk are often the best times to spot many animals. Enjoy exploring the natural beauty around Dunoon!
