Thursday

 

Horrid damp morning - that got worse until after lunch. Jim took the dogs while it was just a light mizzle

Mid afternoon it started to brighten up and by dog walking time it was quite pleasant

Trinity House Vessel Patricia at anchor - not seen her for quite a while

Can tell by the outline that this is a Six Spot Burnet moth

Another beautiful Red Admiral

Quite warm on the field

Maisie looking rather disappointed as the Swallows had flown away

SCIII Almost back in Penzance

Wednesday

 

Nice blue sky morning

Very calm in the bay as well

Fri Brevik still at anchor

Little Rocky

Early morning dog walk on the beach

Gry Maritha heading out to Scilly

The little RS200's were out again as we walked the dogs this afternoon

There were lots of them, but visibility was bad

Rather more cloud this afternoon

Happy Bee on a Lesser Knapweed flower. Pleased to see so many Bees around

Jim managed a quick shot of the first Hummingbird Hawkmoth we've seen this year

Lots of Swallows this afternoon

They do love the Giant Thistle flowers

Tuesday

 

Sunshine and a cool breeze again

Hmm! supposed to be a "gentle walk"

Friends ahoy!

Pete with Samsa and visitor Trevor

Elsa looking very regal on the field - pity she's not keen on running around

They carried on a bit further - just to the steps

Strange expression from Wooster

SCIII heading out to Scilly

Later on Arklow Vanguard arriving from Ringaskiddy

Passing the RS200 Nationals being hosted by Mount's Bay Sailing Club

Maisie waiting to be let back into the lounge - we shut the door without knowing she was out in her corner

The lovely Pellew heading East

Back in her sunny corner

Now two vessels at anchor Fri Brevik and Arklow Vanguard

Quite gusty up at the top of the hill

Thought I could see smoke - turned out it was dust from the harvesting

Bees love the Teasels

We went up to the top this afternoon with Jim trying to help Wooster  on the steps - we'll see how his foot is in the morning
