A bit late in the season now for Bempton isn't it?

Gannets, puffins, guillemots, razorbills have normally mainly gone by end of June haven't they?

The Gannets are they raising late broods until the beginning of September

Carl - if its anything like the Farnes, everything is 3 to 4 weeks late. So there should still be plenty of guillemots, razorbills and puffins too.

Having went to Bempton for the first time with Barrie in early June, I can only say its a fabulous place

Hi Alan - thanks for the info. Yes Bempton is fantastic - on the right day - (that is no fog and wind in the right direction) I generally go half a dozen times a year but have not been since late May this year.

Of course not - I too often help out the underprivileged and needy members of society
