A religious building, then a bastion of defense, and today a UNESCO site visited by the whole world, the Mont Saint-Michel is a true standard of our heritage. For 1300 years, the great history of this mythical place has been mixed with a more confidential history, that of the Bay’s wildlife. From the top of the Statue of the Archangel to the sand dunes, crossing the immense salt meadows, the Mont-Saint-Michel Bay is a real hotspot of biodiversity punctuated by the tides.
Reckless gulls, lazy sea-calves, courageous sheep and playful dolphins, chattering colonies of egrets on the island of Tombelaine, whispering ballet of starlings, short-eared owls on the schorres, nurseries of fish and crustaceans on the foreshore, upwelling of salmon and eels, spectacle of orthopterans on the cliffs of Carolles-Champeaux... The Mont-Saint-Michel Bay is a jewel case of nature, today in danger because of the progression of the salt meadows. Through the eyes of its feathered, furry and scaly inhabitants, this wildlife sanctuary reveals its fragility and undeniable richness.
