use a little reverse psychology

start your day trip early, drive past bempton first (pre planned route required) 'oh since i'm here darling!' and park up and snap some feathers.

Flying Gannet

live not far down the coast from this huge colony of seabirds at Bempton Cliffs - and these Gannets have a 6 foot (1.8m) wingspan

had my K20D and my old 100-300 SMC Pentax-F lens, soon discovered that its easier to shot large moving birds in manual rather than autofocus

front lens element needing protection - its cheaper to replace a UV/skylight/whatever filter when you drop a lens/camera, than it is to replace an entire lens surely?
