These look great Derek! We went to a bird reserve on Bempton cliffs near where we are staying at the moment for the Easter break and I did an animation of one of the head banging puffins on the cliff...

Beautiful pics, Derek. You should publish your collection!

Mark, the vid just needs a head-banging sound track to make it complete :).
