Tuesday

 

Some patches of blue sky this morning

Gatekeeper butterfly

Dredger Mannin working again

Time to get the little plantlets in

 

Rather grey this morning

Putting up the Bunny protection fencing as it's time to get the little Cauliflower plants in

Nice fresh one of these Painted Lady butterflies - so many of them this year

Difficult to spot her on such a grey morning

Border Force vessel came into the bay

Turned and went out again

Looked up and there she was the 120 year old wooden trading ketch Bessie Ellen coming back across the bay after spending the night off Cadgwith

Jim got rather artistic as she came past

Very unusual to see a vessel like this come so close to Perranuthnoe

She turned and off she went

The very old and the very new !!

Mermaid off Men Du Point

The yachts taking part in the PASAB  arriving back from Scilly

We decided to go for a longer walk as it was much cooler today

Nice healthy looking plants in already

We went over the hill towards Trenow

Across the field past the Lavender bushes

Looking a little damp over the hills behind Penzance

Happy Bee on a Lavender bush

We carried on towards Marazion Churchyard

It's been years since we used this path as Wooster struggled with the stiles - they've really improved this part that was falling in

Nice field of Barley as we started to walk down towards the coast again

Several of the PASAB yachts passed the finish line and immediately set off for home

The Grab Dredger Mannin has been dredging the entrance to Penzance Harbour

Sunday

 

Some damp and mizzle around this morning

No real rain

Bad photo of the lovely Bessie Ellen off Mousehole

Bit more sail up

Off she went - She's spending the night off Cadgwith

Back again on the Valerian

We met Allan with Lilly

I do think that she often looks a bit sad - do hope she can find a way to be happy again

Such a pretty girl

Teasels are appearing all over the place
