Fidra Web Cam

Fidra Web Cam

The Scottish Seabird Centre is a world leader in remote wildlife viewing. The webcam images you are watching are transmitted live, direct from the Seabird Centre’s cameras, which are located on the islands of the Firth of Forth and controlled by visitors at the Centre. The live images refresh every 5-10 seconds.

Half a mile from Yellowcraigs beach, the island of Fidra is an RSPB reserve and, reputedly the inspiration for Robert Louis Stevenson's 'Treasure Island'. Fidra is a small attractive island about three miles from the Scottish Seabird Centre. With grassy slopes and cliffs, it is home to small populations of guillemots, razorbills, herring gulls and puffins. The Fidra camera specialises in capturing close-ups of birds.  A pair of peregrine falcons have adopted a 'feasting perch' on Fidra, close to the camera and can be observed all year round, dining on their prey!

For an unusual gift, why not adopt a Puffin? The Seabird Centre is an independent charity and all proceeds go towards the work of the charity.
