RSPB Bempton Cliffs - 27th November 2016

Stonechat

I was only able to spend the morning enjoying the cliffs today, followed by an excellent afternoon tea celebrating the local RSPB groups 30th anniversary. It was interesting to see a large number of Fulmars on and around the cliffs with Gannets moving north and south, albeit in small numbers. A very obliging Stonechat visited me on Grandstand Viewpoint. Highlight of the day for me was a Kestrel hovering near Bartlett Nab being harassed by a Peregrine! Both were thankfully unharmed and sadly, no images!

  3. I think the omission of photo's was worth far more than 100 lines. Stand in the corner for at least a week. Mike.
