On the beach




So another trip to the far west with the sun in our eyes all the way, followed by three days of solid rain. But then on the fourth day came this . Hemmick beach at it's very best and we were the only people on it! The Ravens joined us for a while and we watched a buzzard circling overhead. Bliss! The blue sky and mild weather lasted all day and in the afternoon we went to see the birds come into roost at Spit Beach. Not one for the scenery really, but you can keep the view of the clay dries at bay by turning your back on them! Lots of Curlews and Oyster Catchers huddled on the harbour wall and probably some Turnstones, but too many to count and as the tide was in we could not get very close.
