Seagulls

Today's the day  . . . . . . . . . to blow away the cobwebs 

It was a wild and windy day by the time I went for a brief walk this afternoon - along the shore of Kirkcudbright Bay.

The tide was in and the water as high as I've ever seen it.  Normally this estuary of the River Dee is a calm mudflat - but today the wind was whipping up the waves to a frothy frenzy.  I couldn't tell whether the seagulls were enjoying all this activity - or were screeching their annoyance - but they hung around at the water's edge until the spray forced them once more into the air.

It was exactly the sort of weather I needed, to blow away the cobwebs . . . . . . !
