Wet and wild weekend

Following our record breaking heatwave, November went out with a bang. This is a very short post showing the same jetty and beach that the terns were taken on last week. You can clearly seen the storm damage on the jetty. Even the Silver Gulls were having trouble standing up!! This is a fresh cuttlefish bone. It has not been bleached white by the sun. The beach was littered with them.

  1. Mother Nature always shows us who's boss Tony, looks quite a storm. Can say we have had the same for 4 weeks now rain and gales almost every day. Still luckier than a lot of people.

  2. Hi Tony. Love that squiffy Silver Gull. Too much of the sherry me thinks! (-: Hope you were safe and sounds taking that photo from the comfort of your car?

  3. Hi Monty, yes, in this country of extremes we quickly learn to respect her.

    Hi Jen. I wish!!. No I was just as battered by the time I got back to the car.

  4. From near drought to lashings of rain. Boy do you get some extremes. I have a vision of you tottering around just like the gull!
