IMHO, this is the best (so far :wink: ) of your Gannet shots.

Agree with Paul - that is a stunner. How do you get so close? When I go to Bempton, the gannets are much more distant than they are for you. Do you need a specific wind direction to make them fly near the cliff edge????????

Hi Jim,
The wind was coming from the north east on that day. I just walk along the cliff often ignoring the set areas until I see a bit where the birds are flying close to the edge. Perhaps I was lucky.

cheers
