Some recent photos around and about....

 


Someone raking for cockles.  Whelks and "spoots" (razor clams) are also to be found here at low tide.



The row of stones are known locally as "Dragon's Teeth" - actually cement and were used as part of anti-submarine defences during WWII.  Not sure how as it's very shallow waters here and a submarine would run abround long before reaching this point!



Looking East from the house to the cliffs.



Ronnie off on a hunting spree.  


Looking across St Peter's Pool to St Peter's Bay.  There is a ruin site to the left across the water where St Peter's Kirk once stood. Hence the name for the bay and pool.





Even in dull weather, lovely reflections....





And wonderful cloudscapes 


And..... a kite surfer!  I was particularly windy that day and the speed he was going was tremendous.  


Meanwhile a very fuzzy soft focus photo taken through a salt covered window of a local Hen Harrier sheltering from the wind and rain amont the willows in what passes for a "garden".....
