along with many other bird species. Stags roam the corries and glens in
the autumn months and dewy eyed seals bob along like corks in the island's
bays and inlets.
There is also a rich variety for the botanist ranging from wild woodland plants to the magnificent gardens of Brodick Castle. The Isle of Arran is one of the world's classic geological locations with diverse and beautiful rock formations together with spectacular cliffs formed about 10,000 years ago running around much of the island.
