Rossie Spit in Montrose Basin
Rossie Spit in Montrose Basin
Rossie Spit is a finger shaped bank of mud and pebbles which have been deposited by the tidal currents in Montrose Basin. As the tide starts to fall, as in this photo, the water is starting to uncover the full extent of the spit. Because Rossie Spit is a much frequented site for a great variety of wading birds, the Scottish Wildlife Trust Visitor Centre has a camera permanently mounted there.
