I had a really good time there in the second week of May last year. It helps if you have an onshore breeze as the birds ride on the wind.

Hi,

I was up there a couple of weeks ago. There are a fair number of Gannets, and the odd Guillemot etc.

Just checked out the RSPB events at Bempton Cliffs. They have an event end of March to see Puffins, Gannets, Razorbills etc.

Hope that helps.

Hi Andy,

I am off week starting 7th of April and was thinking of heading up that way so would be good to know what is about.

Regards

Hi Andy,
I live in East Yorkshire and am probably going to Bempton over the Easter hols with my daughter-no Bird photography though as i can't afford any long lenses :confused: I will put a post up of what's around when I've been. Alternatively you can email them at: bempton.cliffs@rspb.org.uk They are normally very helpful and will let you know what birds have returned to breed etc. Hope that helps.
