Brighter morning and a little warmer




Love this dog, such a lovely face
Snatched shot of the Relief Penlee Lifeboat 17-27 Volunteer Spirit towing a German yacht Resilience with its lone sailor that had needed assistance - first by Sennen Lifeboat and then taken over by Penlee
First Wasp of the year - don't see many of them
Japanese Laurel or Spotted Laurel in flower at the moment
Very small flowers, but pretty if you zoom in
Got lots of jobs done today - Jim cleared the balcony gutters and mowed the lawn and I seeded my wild flower area
Nice healthy looking Bunny on the field - gather there's Mixi around
Lovely Hebe flower

Saturday

Good to see that Scillonian III had moved out of the wet dock and onto Lighthouse Pier preparing for her first sailing on Monday
Very misty morning


The mist was rolling around
Some nice Lichenized Ramalinaceae Fungi growing on the little Blackthorn tree. 

Blackthorn flowers - really quite pretty close-up. 

Heavy rain again later on - not nice to drive in

Scillonian III out in the bay after having swung her compass off Newlyn
I herby admit that I have photoshopped the photo in order to improve the view of her
Afternoon walkies and it hadn't improved much



This super Kestrel had been around for much of the afternoon
