Fidra is a small, rugged island off the east coast of Scotland, not far from the resort town of North Berwick. It is believed to have been the inspiration for Robert Louis Stevenson's "Treasure Island". The name "Fidra" is very old, and means "feathers".
There are peregrines on Fidra, and from time to time they are visible on cam. The cameras are controlled by visitors to the island and other nearby sites, so what appears on cam depends on their interests.
Below are two different adults and one juvie:
