Bempton Cliffs Circular Walk - 10th March 2022

 

My "Wing Man"!

A later start this morning, walking to the cliffs and returning down Hoddy Cows Lane. Some good birds, with thousands of Guillemots and Razorbills on the ledges, sea and in flight. Puffins were amongst the Auk rafts on the sea. Still no Kittiwakes for me though, yet!

  1. Lovely shots Kevin. Looks like spring is in the air where you are. Have very happy memories of Hoddy Cow Lane we spent hours watching the small birds along there on our way to the cliffs when we stayed at Manor Farm last June. Keep doing what you are doing it really gives me a lift to see what is happening up there and I can picture myself standing there in at least some of the shots. Thank you
