Waterfoot Sunrise

RRRRiiiibbbiiiiitttt

A quiet Summer day here in Carradale with Mrs B once again busy with the church flower festival. My main concern was getting a dry period at the end of the event to take the marquee, which we had erected next to the church, down before any more heavy showers came on.

The BBC local forecast was for dry and sunny between 2 and 5 o'clock and how right they were. The last shower finished just before 2 o'clock and it remained warm and sunny for the rest of the afternoon. It takes about a dozen of us to get the marquee up or down and it is always so much easier when it is still and dry. In less than an hour we had it dismantled and returned to the old disused church where it is kept.

In fact, we were finished that quickly Mrs B had time for a spot of gardening before dinner. While weeding the largest border she came across a large frog, which I decided to blip because of its big orange eyes.

Well, we think its a frog but Mrs B was not keen on holding on to it any longer than necessary simply for us to identify it. At one point I asked her to lift it slightly higher so it was against this background. There was something about the orange eyes and the fuzzy nasturtiums that I rather liked!

As for the title, well this is what a Google search tells me a frog sounds like!
