For more than 20 years the Scottish Seabird Centre has been enabling people to learn about Scotland’s marine wildlife, habitats and seabirds. It is based on the edge of the Firth of Forth in the seaside town of North Berwick, East Lothian. ‘Gannet cam’ footage is transmitted live from solar-powered cameras on nearby Bass Rock, home to more than 150,000 northern gannets at the peak of the season – making it the world’s largest colony. The gannets spend most of the year there, arriving in late February until the end of October when they set out on their long journey down to the west coast of Africa
