A Puffin (Fratercula arctica) runs on the surface of the water, in preparation for take-off, in the Firth of Forth, off Craigleith, Nr North Berwick, East Lothian, Scotland, UK. Craigleith is part of a chain of four islands near North Berwick, along with Bass Rock, Fidra and the Lamb. Of these, it is the closest to the town's harbour. Like these other nearby islands, Craigleith is a bird colony.
