THE BERWICKSHIRE SHORE 



XII 



In Search of the Rock Dove 



A 7 TER our short visit to the Bass Rock we had 

 a few days to spare before our return home, 

 and having heard of a cave in which rock doves 

 bred, some little distance down the coast, we decided 

 to make our way thither. From North Berwick we 

 took train to a small fishing village on the Berwick- 

 shire shore ; there we stayed for a day or two. It 

 was a sleepy little place, quite unaccustomed to 

 seeing strangers from the outside world, so that we, 

 with our cameras, were a source of great attraction 

 to the natives.
