Bempton Cliffs. (Again)

I couldn't resist posting some more of my pictures from Bempton Cliffs. The sound and smells on the East coast were quite breathtaking and at times eye watering. As I've mentioned before, it was the Gannet that I really came to see, and there were plenty around both in the air and on the rocks.



Plenty here sat on nests. Its a shame to see so much rubbish on the rock. Discarded fishing nets and ropes seem to be the most popular nesting material.

Kittiwake in a bit of a foul mood.

And looking a little more content.

    I love the composition of the photo of the foul-tempered Kittiwake. I drool at the sights you're seeing. Thanks for sharing. Greetings Jo (South Africa)

    I always look forward to seeing your photos on #AnimalTales but should stop trying to pick my favourite as they are all great ... but I do really like the first shot - such effortless gliding.

    Fantastic captures! The birds are beautiful, but it's sad to see the trash in their nests.
