A European Shag (Phalacrocorax aristotelis), floats on the Firth of Forth, near Craigleith. 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.
