This stocky, brown mammal spends its life burrowing underground with its spade-like paws, hunting for earthworms to eat.

This stocky wader is mostly a winter visitor to the UK, where it can be found on rocky, seaweed-covered coasts, often with groups of turnstones.

The chocolate-brown, plump dipper can often be seen bobbing up and down on a stone in a fast-flowing river. It feeds on underwater insects by walking straight into, and under, the water.

A rare breeder in the UK, this sooty-coloured bird is as at home on an industrial site as it is on a rocky cliff face.

This sooty-black, day-flying moth is active on sunny days, rarely settling in one place for long.

This large round urchin is sometimes found in rockpools, recognisable by its pink spiky shell (known as a test).

A common and stocky bird of our rocky coasts, the rock pipit can nearly always be seen close to the sea. It is a bit smaller than a starling.
