1. Windy Sunday!

   Posted on 3:34pm Sunday 23rd Feb 2014

   I've not been to the beach today as it is so windy, but went for a walk along the river instead. It was still very windy, but quite good light so I took a few photos of local birds and one uncommon (and very close) visitor a Slavonian Grebe!

2. Time has lapsed

   Posted on 4:50pm Saturday 8th Feb 2014

   Had a wonderful 2 1/2 hours beachcombing yesterday, the sun was out and as it was a south wind it wasn't freezing :)
   Took a little time out and just sat here staring out to sea - aaaah!
   I didn't know where to look first - all these bits!

    

   A good day!  Lots of sea glass in most colours and even a nice little piece of blue, but even more pottery! Also, in the top right of the photo is a whole shell, not something I find regularly, they are nearly always broken.
