We took a drive up the coast of the Firth to the north and west of Dunbar to the small town of North Berwick. Here, we find the Scottish Seabird Center. It turns out that it mostly a place to have a cuppa (which we did) and few souvenirs (which we also did) and support the Center's activities. Town wasn't large or terribly interesting. But there were things along the shore that I found photo worthy. Above is a much closer view of Bass Rock that you saw the other day. It is white on top from all the bird poop.
On the near shore, we find birds on the rocks as well.
Up close, we see that the epiphytes on the rocks are colorful this year.
Even a gull looks good on a sunny day on these rocks.
There is a lighthouse on Bass Rock. I shudder to think about what lighthouse duty was like back when these things were manned 24/7.
A lonely place in an empty stretch of water.
