Seabirds which can be seen include bonxies, twite, dunlin, guillemots, razorbills, skylarks, and fulmars.
On the west coast is a guillemot colony.
The outer point is about 25 meters high, and serves as a breeding place for guillemot, kittiwakes and ptarmigan.
The cliffs are also important for breeding fulmar, razorbill and guillemot.
For example, once common guillemot chicks fledge, they remain with the male parent for several months at sea.
Certain birds such as the eider duck, guillemot and ptarmigan are hunted for food in the winter.
The guillemot nests in the cliffs, while the auk mostly prefers deep cracks underneath the cliffs.
There are also many varieties of seabird including cormorants, guillemots and herons.
