Roe deer seen on Calton Hill, 16 and 22 July 2025

By Admin on 17 July 202529 July 2025

A roe deer (Capreolus capreolus), possibly a juvenile, was seen on the hill on the 16th, followed by a roebuck on Regent Walk on 22 July. We also received a report of another (or the same?) roebuck in London Road Gardens on 28 July.

We understand there are a few roe deer in Holyrood Park. So they may have come from there.

Thank you to Tor Crawley, Mariela Brown and Roy Calderwood for the reports and photos.
