| And let's not forget that the Moray Firth between Cullen and Findhorn is home to one of only two resident populations of bottle-nosed dolphins in Britain. The estimated number is about 129. On a sunny summer day, walkers on the cliff tops can be almost sure to see a group of dolphins leaping and playing, sometimes quite near to the shore. They are a protected species and sensitive to disturbance, so enjoy these beautiful creatures, but respect them. |
