Local Exercise Walk to Bempton Cliffs (Some of the Birds)

 

Not my first Puffin of the year, but my first on the cliffs!

A glorious morning on what (as far as I'm concerned) is the last day of winter! Spring starts tomorrow!!

Even better, I found my first Puffin of the year on the cliffs! However, like one Swallow doesn't make a summer, one Puffin doesn't make a breeding season! Some record shots



Record images of all three breeding Auks (Puffin, Guillemot, Razorbill) on the cliffs




Guillemot / Razorbill Comparison

Spooky! Managed to capture a "ghost" this morning, the "ghost" of a departed Fulmar, now haunting Bartlett Nab!



Images taken handheld with Canon 7D mk2 and 400mm 5.6 prime lens.

Please stay safe on your LOCAL exercise walk in nature.
