Drumburgh Moss
Summer is the time when adders and lizards are most likely to be encountered. It is advisable to look very carefully where you put your feet. The mammals you’re most likely to see are roe deer, hare and possibly fox. Red grouse, curlew, redshank, and grasshopper warbler all breed here, and short-eared owls can sometimes be seen hunting over the moss. In winter the reserve often hosts small numbers of geese from the huge flocks on the Solway.
