Capercaillie - we will not be looking for this species!
As human disturbance threatens to push Capercaillie closer to extinction with only 542 left in the UK, birdwatchers, photographers and wildlife guides are being urged by RSPB and others to not go looking for Capercaillie in the handful of forests where the birds remain in the Cairngorms National Park.
Disturbance can stop Capercaillie from breeding and cause unnecessary stress to the birds. Protected under UK law, it is a criminal offence to disturb Capercaillie whilst they are lekking, nesting and raising young.
We along with many other Tour companies have taken to support the RSPB what we think is the right and responsible approach to not search out Capercaillies and risk affecting the breeding success of the species.
