whales in Firth of Forth
The largest group of whales thought to have been seen
travelling together in or near the Firth of Forth has been recorded from the
air. The pod of 14 sperm whales was seen on Thursday heading from the island of
Fidra to the Lamb, just a mile offshore at North Berwick in East Lothian.The
whales then changed direction, heading towards Crail in Fife.They were reported
to the Scottish Seabird Centre by microlight pilots who saw them from a height
of 500ft.The whales were also spotted by Scottish Natural Heritage staff and
other researchers on the Isle of May who were able to identify the whales' tail
flukes, dorsal fins and plumes of spray.
