I arrived at sunrise and was greeted by a Barn Owl all be it at a distance.
Shortly after a Fox ran past behind be and I missed the opportunity for a photo.
The cliffs are quite alive now with the Gannets busy collecting nesting materials. The wind was very low today and the birds kept well below the cliff tops making getting a photo tricky.
Razorbills are around in what seems good numbers with huge rafts out at sea.
The same go's for the Guillemots with plenty around and busy flying back and forth to the cliff ledges.
In far fewer numbers are the Puffins and at times quite tricky to pick out.
Kittiwakes are also in good numbers and a great bird to watch soaring around the cliffs before what seems finding the most awkward ledge to land and build a nest on.
Every now and then a Fulmar would turn up mixed among the Kittiwakes but always seemed to stay well below the cliff tops.
Their was a few other species about today with Linnets showing quite well along the nature trail path.
I hope to get back again soon for another day hopefully in the very near future.
Below is a few more images from the day.
