Bottletopburly Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 Visited Bempton cliffs Yorkshire whilst holidaying what an amazing place , spotted one puffin and was only a glimpse and forgot the Binoculars before leaving home but still got to see gannets up close like waves of bombers leaving on a sorte magnificent sight , could have done with a better lens only had the 18-55 (what would be a better all round lens ?) and so many birds on the cliffs thousands upon thousands of many species gullimots gannets puffin various types of seagulls went in the evening (it’s free access then ) couple of nice viewing platforms and the gannets come so close look so slow until you try and catch a photo small selection below links to my google photos https://photos.app.goo.gl/Xyx9fy2X6inpgvjG8 https://photos.app.goo.gl/kFdBFE7irWYEsyCA7 https://photos.app.goo.gl/WXSM47VCKa7ggcn16 https://photos.app.goo.gl/DKnKMTKyGC2wD9uk9 https://photos.app.goo.gl/5kDXu72yUya7XujPA https://photos.app.goo.gl/vCEBpjgzpN6QYUYt7 +RonC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 It is a wonderful place David I've been there numerous times. As you say the gannets are fantastic, you are a little late for puffins now but they are cracking little birds. A trip on the boat tour around the cliffs is worth the cost, you can get really close to the birds. Bottletopburly 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being unfamiliar with area I knew nothing of Bempton, maybe better prepared next time and a trip in early June . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
