Local Exercise Walk to Bempton Cliffs

 

Well, hellooo!

A rather dull morning with light snow / sleet showers and a cool blow on my local exercise walk. Again, it was a hard trudge up Cliff Lane, courtesy of the snow left by the recent "beast from the east". I certainly felt the muscles protesting!

Some of the thousands of Guillemots that have returned to the ledges








Guillemots (almost) in the snow!


A few more Gannets are also returning to the ledges



Distant, very heavily cropped Peregrines

Spot the pellet! (? Corvid? ?Kestrel?)




It was not a good morning for views but....










The Grandstand Ice Feature



And the Grandstand top soil landslip

Please stay safe on your exercise walk in nature.
