The forecast was good so we decided to head off to Porthgwarra before the big crowds arrive. Rather a strange Foxglove
She's getting keen on being the photographers dog
This is what we'd spotted - Pyramidal Orchids
Quite a few Gatekeeper butterflies zooming around up there
Cattle up on the top right by the upper footpath
Several big walking parties today
Approaching my favourite place
Hmm ! He insists they weren't near the edge
Wonderful colours
A few snatched shots of the Choughs as they flew past
Agnes on her way to Scilly again
A few Seals hauled out on the rocks below us
Good day for scenic trips
Looking across to Gwennap Head as we walk back down
The cafe has lots more to offer this year - nice sausage baps !
We then set off again to walk up to Gwennap Head along the coast
Wolf Rock Lighthouse
Longships Lighthouse
Gannets heading home to Wales
The outline of the Isles of Scilly quite clear today
Just two seals left on the lower rocks
and a couple higher up
The NCI Station up at Gwennap Head - I often quote the wind speed from up here - you can see the anemometer up on the top of the pole
