The Gannets of Bempton Cliffs


A brief post tonight. Julie and I were up early in the car and off for a 1 hour drive to the coast to Bempton Cliffs. We were able to get a jump on the shore traffic as Easter weekend with temperatures in the 70's was sure to fill the roads towards the coast. This has been on my bucket list since last October when we planned this trip.  Bempton did not disappoint. We had a perfect day. Warm sunshine and the Gannets returned to the cliffs from the sea right on schedule. These sea birds spend their winters out at sea and return to the cliffs each April to nest and raise young. A special thanks to the outdoor preserve who allowed me to park in disabled parking and provided me with a scooter to get out to the cliffs.

Tonight it's just photos....more on our specular day, continuing on through the moors, later.
