Official name | Din Moss - Hoselaw Loch |
Designated | 14 July 1988 |
Reference no. | 405[1] |
Hoselaw Loch and Din Moss is a nature reserve near Kelso in the Scottish Borders area of Scotland, in the former Roxburghshire. A lack of footpaths and the surrounding land being used by farms makes access tricky.[2]
The reserve is designated SSSI, SPA and Ramsar because of the large numbers of wildfown overwintering there, especially the Icelandic/Greenland pink-footed goose (Anser brachyrhynchus)[2] and the Icelandic greylag goose (Anser anser).
