Bempton Cliffs RSPB and Sand Hole

An afternoon/evening albatross dip at Bempton Cliffs was redeemed by hundreds of Puffins and thousands of Kittiwakes, Razorbills, Guillemots and Gannets. A Great Skua and a small number of Fulmars were also seen, while passerines included a good number of Tree Sparrows and singles of Corn Bunting and Reed Bunting. A family party of three Peregrines shot through noisily.
