New Kid On The Block














I have just recently joined the team of volunteers at RSPB Bempton Cliffs Reserve. I just volunteer on a Saturday, I have currently done 4 shifts and cannot wait until the next one. Bempton is an amazing reserve with 400ft white cliffs and thousands of seabirds to match.

The reserve is slowly quietening off now with most of the Auks moving back out to sea, however the Gannet colony's are booming with activity and if you are planning on visiting the reserve soon you must go to the view point called "Staple Newk", this is where our biggest Gannet colony is, and when you peer down to take a look you will be amazed - its an awesome sight.
