This is Albert the solitary Black-browed Albatross that became famous for visiting Bempton Cliffs for many summers between 2014 and 2022.
We'd taken a boat trip to photograph diving Gannets just offshore from Bempton Cliffs when Albert made a surprise and most welcome appearance. It was a pretty grey day so this isn't the best of shots but it serves as a nice reminder of our close encounter with him.
As always, thank you so much for stopping by and for leaving any comments or faves, they are very much appreciated.
I've finally got round to visiting a few 'celebrity' birds this year with the latest being the black-browed albatross at RSPB Bempton Cliffs. It took a couple of visits but it was well worth the wait, what a bird!
Unusual to see these out in the open, small flocks usually babble away in the bushes and rarely venture out.

Red-browed Finch
Scientific Name: Neochmia temporalis
Description: The Red-browed Finch is most easily recognised by its bright red eyebrow, rump and beak, on an otherwise green and grey bird. Upperparts are olive green with grey underneath. Both sexes are similar in appearance. Often observed in small flocks, which feed on the grass. They will fly into dense undergrowth when disturbed by a passer-by. Red-browed Finches may also be called Red-browed Firetails.
Similar species: Silvereye
Distribution: The Red-browed Finch occurs mostly east of the Great Dividing Range, between Cape York in Queensland and the Mount Lofty Ranges in South Australia
Habitat: The Red-browed Finch is found in grassy areas interspersed with dense understorey vegetation, often along creek lines.
Seasonal movements: Largely sedentary.
Feeding: The Red-browed Finch feeds on seeds and insects on the ground, but sometimes perches on seeding grass heads.
Breeding: The nest of the Red-browed Finch is large and domed, with a side tunnel for an entrance. It is a rough construction of twigs and grass stems built in a dense shrub between 1 and 2 metres from the ground. Both parents share nest-building, incubation of the eggs and feeding of the young when they hatch.
Calls: Short, high-pitched whistles.
Minimum Size: 10cm
Maximum Size: 12cm
Average size: 11cm
Average weight: 11g
Breeding season: October to April
Clutch Size: 4 to 5
Incubation: 14 days
Nestling Period: 22 days

Apologies for the continuing theme of the Yorkshire Albatross but it was a pretty amazing, and this angle shows its underwing pattern rather than its black back. Black-browed Albatross normally only occurs in the southern hemisphere and its nearest breeding site to Britain is the Falkland Islands which is 8000 miles away. They are habitual ship followers and I'm assuming that is how this one managed to stray so far out of range. But Sooty Shearwaters www.flickr.com/photos/timmelling/5511808162/in/photolist also breed in the Falkland Islands and they routinely migrate north to British waters in large numbers every summer (which is the southern hemisphere winter).
There must have been more sunlit shots collectively taken of Arten Gill viaduct on the eastern side in the past two weeks than there have been over the duration of very many years past. From this angle, the last occasion for me was over twenty-one years ago, so I was very happy to obtain this on Friday 31st July 2020. Locomotive Services Ltd.'s D6817 (37521) leads (with 47593 on the rear) the 1Z40 08:35 Skipton to Appleby Rail Charter Services 'Settle & Carlisle Tourist Train' over Arten Gill viaduct, viewed from Stonehouse Brow on the Dent Fell.

I was about to say that this would have been one of the last close views at Bempton, but it appears to have returned!
This is one of many Chalk-browed Mockingbirds we encountered during our Pantanal trip this month. They seemed to be pretty curious birds much like our Northern Mockingbirds here at home.

All autumn whenever I've been wandering around my local reserves I've been hoping to hear the characteristic call of a yellow-browed warbler. I've seen them before but not in Northants and it has therefore been a high priority for my county list. We were visiting people after Christmas and lo and behold, not one but two yellow-browed warblers turn up at one of my local patches, Summer Leys. After a couple of days of hoping they would stay, I visited and enjoyed a couple of hours with these brilliant little birds
Currently there are 178 photographs of this individual Black-browed Albatross on Birdguides and most of these photographs look pretty much the same (flying with a sea/sky background). Now I know this photograph is cluttered, and it isn't a competition winner, but it is a bit different. First it shows the Albatross flying over the Gannet colony on Staple Neuk at Bempton. Black-browed Albatross is usually only found in the Southern Hemisphere and Northern Gannet is only found in the north, so the two species don't normally come into contact. But more importantly this is a great size comparison with Britain's biggest seabird. Gannets have nearly a six foot wingspan but you can see that looks small next to the Black-browed Albatross's nearly eight foot wingspan right next to it. And the final reason I liked this photograph is that it was really difficult to track and keep it in focus as it flew over the Gannet colony, so I was proud of my achievement.

This one is an adult. I was slightly surprised that the Black-browed was not easily the most numerous Albatross that we saw..... that honour went to Salvin's !
The prolonged presence of "Albert" at Bempton Cliffs means that Flickr is brimming with Black-browed Albatross shots, including several from myself (I typed Yorkshire albatross into Flickr and got more than 1000 hits). Because of this, I wanted to capture albatross images that were clearly not taken at Bempton, and I think that this one ticks all the boxes. In the South Atlantic, Black-browed is by far the most numerous albatross. Most of the time it is difficult to look at the see without seeing one as they are numerous breeders on the Falkland Islands. In 2007 nearly 400,000 pairs bred there, which is about two-thirds of the global population. But as you cross into the colder water past the Antarctic convergence they become noticeably less numerous. So getting them with icebergs in the background is more of a challenge. I took this photo well south of South Georgia when we were en route to Elephant Island.
