Cliff walk along the coast of Howth, just north of Dublin, Ireland.
Decided on a vertical composition here, to exaggerate the cliffs and how they protrude into the ocean.

(Thamnolaea cinnamomeiventris)
The mocking cliff chat, mocking chat or cliff chat, is a species of chat in the family Muscicapidae which occurs in rocky habitats in much of eastern Sub-Saharan Africa.
The mocking cliff chat is a large chat with distinctive colouration. The male has a glossy black with a chestnut belly, vent, and rump and white shoulder patches. The shoulder patches vary in size geographically. The female is dark grey with a chestnut lower breast, belly, and vent. The mocking cliff chat has a length of 19–21 cm and weigh 41–51g.
A loud fluty melodious warbling song which often contains many rapid fire phrases mimicking other species, with some harsher phrases interspersed.
The mocking cliff chat occurs in a neat band from central Ethiopia in the north through east Africa into Zimbabwe, south-eastern Botswana, southern Mozambique and eastern South Africa as far as the far east of Western Cape province. Mostly resident but in the south of its range tends to move to lower altitudes in the winter months.
The mocking cliff chat inhabits rocky and boulder strewn areas, well-wooded rocky ravines, cliffs, gullies, boulder-strewn hillsides and watercourses in valley bottoms with scattered rocks.

A pic of me jumping off the kiddie cliff at Rick's Cafe in Jamaica. I was going to jump off the big cliff, but Heather said she wouldn't come and visit me in the Jamaican Hospital. She said she would be back at the resort on the beach sipping a Pina Colada and I thought to myself, you know that sounds much better than dying so kiddie cliff it was.

These are the famous cliff divers in Acapulco in Mexico. Once Elvis Presly dived here as well for a movie.
Two people peer intently at the Miocene deposit which makes up Scientists Cliffs.
If you peer intently too, you can find shells of ancient animals compressed into the clay. My friend, who is looking down at the end, found a sharks tooth moments after this photo was taken! The water is constantly washing away the deposit and exposing new fossils, so its alright to have a look and pick up some yourself.
