The weather forecast was not particularly promising, so we started the day at Flamborough: a brief seawatch by the 'foghorn' produced a single Manx Shearwater heading north. A patch of blue sky sent us back to Bempton (via a jacket purchase for Linda at the RNLI shop at South Landing!) This was a great move: while drinking a cup of coffee we enjoyed super-close views of a hunting Barn Owl - finally!
Walking along the cliffs in both directions produced excellent shots of the usual Auks, as well a bridled form of Guillemot. Best of all: a Shag at the base of the cliffs, viewable only by hanging over the railings!
