05/03/2015 Fulmars at Fairlight Cliffs, Pett Levels

Thursday 5th March 2015
Fairlight Cliffs near Pett Level

Andrew texted to say the Fulmars were nesting on the cliffs at Fairlight so I travelled down mid-afternoon to observe them at this lovely period in the calendar.  I first witnessed this last year with Andrew and was blown away by the sight of Fulmar's in such a convivial setting.

This year was no exception with most pairs sharing the nest on the cliff sides with the odd few flying around like mini "spitfires" to provide the aerial display. 

After 20 minutes or so I felt the need to leave, having intruded long enough on this intimate experience.
