Black-Browed Albatross

After 2 previous unsuccessful trips to see the celebrity status Albatros at RSPB Bempton I finally got lucky. Believed to be the only one in the Northern Hemisphere, its thought that "Albie" had been blown off course.Sadly, its thought very unlikely that he will ever be able to return to his native breeding grounds After waiting well over an hour amongst huge crowds I was finally treated to a very brief flypast before he settled down again out of sight.
