		This year looks set to be the worst on record for Kittiwakes nesting at the Bempton Cliffs nature reserve on the Yorkshire coast, the RSPB confirmed today (Friday 30 July 2004).
		The Kittiwakes that nest at the internationally important Bempton Cliffs colony feed mainly on sandeels, a small silvery shoaling fish.
		The news from Bempton Cliffs is particularly alarming because, like the canary in the coal mine, the fortunes of the Kittiwakes are regarded as an effective measure of the health of the marine environment.

		In turn, the sand eels feed on plankton, but as the temperature of the North Sea rises the plankton, which is the food source of the sand eels, is moving further north to cooler waters, and the sand eel population is migrating with it.
		Another factor is that the birds on Bempton Cliffs breed at the same time as the sand eels are being taken by fishermen.
		This situation is not confined to Bempton Cliffs as breeding sites in Lincolnshire and East Anglia have also been affected and in the Orkneys and Shetlands the situation is at crisis level.

		The east coast has magnificent seabird colonies such as those at Bempton cliffs and offers good sea watching in the right conditions from Filey and Flamborough, but the whole coastline also attracts large numbers of migrants in spring and autumn.
		The fascination with the splendid cliffs and their thousands of nesting seabirds is obvious, but the attraction of the head to migrant birds was well known to some of the taxidermists of that time, such as Matthew Bailey.
		The RSPB Sanctuary can be seen from some of the hotel bedrooms and is the ideal place during your visit to the cliffs to come to relax and refresh yourself.
