Thanks for kind comments folks. Its a great place to go, and one I'll certainly be returning to in the future.

There are other birds there too. The likes of Guillemots, Kittiwakes and Puffins on the cliffs. Tree Sparrows and Jackdaws aplenty near the visitors centre (got some Jackdaw pics on my flickr). Apparently very good generally. Spoke to a guy who'd been photographing Barn Owl and Whitethroat.

WOW! You have some great images of these birds in flight. The two guys flying along, one with his head up and the other with nesting materials are fantastic.

Yoo hoo wins it hands down in my book. Brilliant photo. K.

Tremendous shots Alan. It would be churlish to pick a favourite as they are all so good.

Absolutely. Number 4 is just brilliant - a comical pose that's for sure. Well done!

You bring Alan down to Whitby Barrie and show him how to shoot REAL birds
