Sea Cat!
I was out on the road speaking to a neighbour who had stopped his tractor, when he pointed down to the shore. I expected to see him pointing at a seal. No - it was Button among the seaweed and rocks. Eeeek!!!
She's come for a walk along the shore with me before but I didn't realise she went off exploring near the water ON HER OWN! I think it's better NOT to know what cats get up to when they are out. I shall worry now about "freak waves" etc. I'm hoping if the sea is wild she has the sense to stay away from it. But who knows!!
All these photos were taken using a zoom lens! Yes she was THAT far away!
Perhaps she's waiting for Owl with the pea green boat?
And yes this is STILL on zoom....

DeleteShe's obviously planning to catch her own fish, Sian, :-) Your new camera is doing rather well, isn't it?
ReplyDeleteHmmmm yes clearly the food *I* provide is not good enough! That's cats for you. LOL! Yes enjoying my camera. Need to do a bit of experimenting but I just don't seem to find the time just now...
DeleteAhhh the memory you caused to bubble to the surface ...
ReplyDeleteThe Owl and the Pussy-cat went to sea
In a beautiful pea green boat,
They took some honey, and plenty of money,
Wrapped up in a five pound note.
The Owl looked up to the stars above,
And sang to a small guitar,
'O lovely Pussy! O Pussy my love,
What a beautiful Pussy you are,
You are,
You are!
What a beautiful Pussy you are!'
My Phoebe tap dances on the roof. The first time I saw her, I was horrified (my previous cat, Abby, was elderly & never jumped any further than my lap) but I've learnt to just walk away. She always gets down in one piece.
