About

Scotland is amazing for wildlife. The variety of species and habitats is outstanding - from golden eagles to otters, red squirrels to wintering geese and huge seabird colonies - all set among rugged mountains, moorland, ancient Caledonian pine forests and miles of coastline.

Our work

Conservation
Scotland has enjoyed numerous conversation successes.
Farming
Scotland has nearly five million hectares under agricultural management, so farming and crofting have an enormous impact on the landscape and wildlife.
Education
From booklets about rare bees to campaigning for more sustainable development education in schools, the RSPB's education work in Scotland covers a wide range.
Policy
RSPB Scotland works to develop policies that reflect Scotland's identity, species and habitats
Protecting wildlife sites
The RSPB makes the case for birds in Scotland by commenting on about 270 development and land use proposals each year that could affect important places for birds.
