Same beach different sky.
I went back this morning to see if there were more purses to be found
Here is my morning’s haul
Only 8 purses today.
I was so pleased I found a Cat Shark purse, as this is Little Miss M’s (aged 7) favourite.
And this is what happens when your granddaughter tells her Mum that she would ‘fill it with pearls if she found one’
Just look at those colours!
Walking along the Sea Wall this morning,
my intention was to power walk along for about a mile and back again, but when the spring tide has thrown up these beauties
of course it turned into the usual beachcombing walk
Drama in the skies – just before I got very wet walking back to the car
Worth it though!

On Wednesdays, after school, I take my granddaughter Miss E to her Gym Class. In the winter I am happy to sit for the two hours with crochet and a flask of tea, listening to podcasts on my iPad, but yesterday was such a lovely evening, I dropped her off and drove on for about 10 minutes and went for a walk.
Is this a Six Spot Burnet moth?
Joining Cee’s Flower of the Day.
Glimpses from my walk yesterday evening.
Turn the sound right up to hear the birds and the bees.
We had a magical family day out yesterday at Abbotsbury Swannery.
Feeding time for swans is at 12 noon and 4pm
Children are able to go and feed them too.
There were masses of breeding pairs to see
and cygnets – awwww!
There are Go Karts, a Maze, a Quiz, a Playground and a very good restaurant, which all makes for a very good day out.
And – Little Miss M and I added 3.2 miles to our total – 75.2miles completed – target 500 miles
