Summary

Description
English: Hailstone Shelves, Buckton Cliffs, Buckton, East Riding of Yorkshire, England.
Gannets on the cliff top at Hailstone Shelves, west of the famous Bempton Cliffs Nature Reserve. http://www.rspb.org.uk/reserves/guide/b/bemptoncliffs/index.asp This stretch of the North Sea coast around Bempton has for many years been a breeding ground for a spectacular seabird colony which includes puffins, guillemots, razorbills, fulmars, kittiwakes, herring gulls and shags, and possibly the largest mainland gannetry in Britain. Numbers of successfully reared chicks have however dropped quite dramatically in recent years as the once plentiful sand eels which the birds feed on are now in short supply, possibly due to a combination of industrial fishing and rising sea temperatures.
