Bempton for a day

Five days away on the east coast saw me managing a couple of visits to Bempton cliffs and trying my hand at a few in flight shots of the Gannets,first visit the weather was overcast with some rain at times but on the plus side there was a nice stiff breeze which helped although very cold.I noticed early on in the day that the Gannets very rarely flew higher than the cliff top, on talking with others we came to the conclusion that it was due to them nest building collecting grass etc from the top part of the cliff face however here's a few pics mainly from my second visit when the weather was better(still need more practice).

The fulmar was a bit close and I nearly missed it
