Yep, as those of you with latest bird news subscriptions and social media feeds will be more than aware, she/he's back. After news broke well after dark, yesterday morning (after a bit of early work to take care of) I headed across the bay to Bempton, where (presumably) the same Black-browed Albatross -
the one I saw in the same spot exactly four years ago, and then again,
almost exactly a year ago, off Filey Brigg - had magically reappeared.
There are, understandably, a million photos out there of this very wonderful bird (many much better than mine), but save to say the views, and experience, were very special. If she/he sticks around, I may be tempted back for more later in the week; if not, well thanks the memories, big bird.
