Orcas Arrive in Firth of Forth

Orcas Arrive in Firth of Forth

Published 11 hours ago
Description

A pod of orcas just made a splash off East Lothian’s coast, porpoising near Bass Rock — a rare but increasingly common sight in the Firth of Forth. Once a northern or western phenomenon, these marine mammal specialists are now regularly cruising south, lured by a delicious buffet: seal pups on the Isle of May and migrating mackerel spawning from June onward. The Scottish Seabird Centre’s been tracking their growing presence, even if catching them on camera remains a challenge — but their arrival signals a thrilling shift in Scotland’s marine wildlife scene.
