Flamborough Head

[David995031]

Not been very active (photographically speaking) recently but thought my visit to this stunning part of the Yorkshire coastline would be worth recording. Shots of puffins, guillemots, gannets, razorbills and a reed bunting (or so I am told)

Nice set David.  Bempton Cliffs?  The last one looks to be a male Reed Bunting to me as well.

Thanks John. The bird shots were on Bempton Cliffs, the landscape views were on Flamborough Head proper. I was told it was a reed bunting but I really had no idea myself. Now two of you have agreed I guess it must be right.

It looks like a tree sparrow to me.

A nice set of images David, I'm tending to agree with James though, in that it also looks like a Tree Sparrow to me.

A great set, David.

Thanks everyone. Tree Sparrow? Reed Bunting? I really don't know. A bloke outside the  RSPB centre at Bempton Cliffs said it was a bunting but having googled them both, they are quite similar. He could be wrong.
