Bempton Cliffs.

Decided to head to Bempton cliffs this morning to tick off a few species that I knew would be about.
Really nice place with a great new visitor centre.

Plenty of Gannet around nesting and flying quite close to the cliff tops.




The Guillemot stayed a little further away and proved hard to gain a photo in flight as you have to shoot down on to them but loads about.


The Kittiwake were in the hundreds around the cliffs, busy gathering nesting material.


The Puffins were great to see not so many about compared to the other species but easy to spot when sitting with the gannet and guillemot.



Razorbill were about in good numbers also.


All in all a good few hours and the resident barn owl paid a brief visit.
I also managed to see a red kite near to home.
