Welcome to
North Sutherland
Wildlife Group
A community-based natural history charity situated
on the north coast of Sutherland, Scotland.
About The Group
We aim to promote enjoyment, protection and study of the amazing wildlife and stunning natural landscape of the north of Sutherland by:
North Sutherland is rich in wildlife, but species here have been under-recorded historically. Every decision that’s made about the environment depends on reliable wildlife information. By encouraging accurate wildlife recording, the group helps to ensure that important decisions are based on the best, most up-to-date wildlife records. Sightings made by group members are passed to relevant groups to correct the historical under-recording.
Everyone is welcome, residents and visitors. Please send in your records, and join our Facebook community to share your sightings and to find out what others have seen in the area.
To join the group, or for more information, get in touch.
