Hi there! Happy #SuperSeabirdSunday ! Gannet, RSPB Bempton, on Friday 31 July. Seen with @richard013.bsky.social
Welcome to Super Seabird Sunday where we ask you to share photos, videos & artwork of seabirds. Here is my contribution, thousands of Gannet’s off the Bass Rock. A remarkable sight. #SuperSeabirdSunday
Fulmar chicks have been hatching over the island in the last few weeks and you can just see this youngster peeking its head out. It’ll be early September before it fledges.
It might not look much but this young Guillemot (aged just 20-21 days old) has jumped off its cliff ledge home and is now following dad out 60 miles. The chick will rely on father for next 6-8 weeks. Remarkable start.
This great blue heron was wading through a wetlands nature preserve in Lake County Florida, the Emeralda Marsh Conservation area.

Puffins from a few weeks ago, Heimaey, Iceland. Inspired me to get my paints out when I got back to 🇨🇦. Pretty pleased with my first attempt at painting an animal.
Whoever said July's typically a slow month for #birding didn't reckon with the Plover chicks that just hatched in my local patch. Expect another picture or two of these cute little fellas in the coming days... 😍 #birds #birdwatching #birdphotography #SuperSeabirdSunday #waders #shorebirds #cuteness

I'll be out tomorrow so I'm sneakily posting early for #SuperSeabirdSunday this shot of Gannets billing at @rspb.bsky.social's fantastic #BemptonCliffs reserve. It was the first time I was close to Gannets and I was delighted to see this. #Birds #UkWildlife #wildlifephotography #EastCoastKin
