Bempton Cliffs, Yorkshire.

Gannets take around 4-5 years to reach adult maturity. This example was seen win one of a couple of trips to Bempton Cliffs that I made earlier this year.

The sight of a Moorhen is something that surprised me when I visited Bempton during the summer. It is one of those bird species that I would never have expected to come across at the cliff top sea bird paradise.

One from earlier in the week. The number of gannets seems to be on an upwards spiral, however puffins did seem to be fewer in numbers. It may well be that we were a little early in the season. I might have to revisit in a month or two.

Two of the well known summer resident species are seen in this view. In focus and much higher up the cliffs is a Kittieake and much lover the distinctive firm of a Northern Gannet can be made out.

Photographed a couple of weeks ago at Bempton Cliffs. I can't say that I can recall the guillemot making noise non flight but this one looks as though it has something to say.

I have visited Bempton Cliffs for a number of years and can't recall seeing so many Jackdaws as we did the other day. They are great birds to watches well and are constantly on the top searching for food or just seemingly being inquisitive.

Shortly after our return from Africa we took a couple of pals away for and introduced them to the delights of Bempton Cliffs. When you introduce a friend to a subject that you appreciate it is natural to wonder whether they will also gain pleasure from exposure to your hobby. I needn't have worried as they thoroughly enjoyed their walk along the cliff tops.
