Robin Hood's Bay to Ravenscar (almost)

A sunny and warm walk along the beach and cliff top. The tide didn't allow us to get as far as Ravenscar at the time we were walking, but it didn't stop us from finding a rich variety of fossils - that is going to have to be a separate blog!

Spring has sprung and there seems to be a chiffchaff in every bush! Plenty of bee activity and a peacock butterfly too. The cliffs are spectacular and clearly collapse regularly and beach rough at the top. The climb into Bogglehole and out again was steep but well stepped- what a great name!

General views along the beach. 

Solitary bee.....andrena sp.

Tiger beetle.

Solitary bee - a different andrena sp.

Coltsfoot - lots on the slumped parts of the cliffs and pussy willow.
