Huge seas today. Couldn't walk far as even an hour from high tide, waves were crashing into the dunes. Strong W winds. Bluebottles with a big range of sizes
Huge seas. Strong W winds. First of these I've seen for ages. Many quite large
On a plastic bottle. N winds. Moderate seas
Only saw 3 today over 2kms of beach. Not even any dried up ones on the last high tide mark. Must've washed away in the big tides. N wind. Moderate seas
Photos made without flash.
My first camera came back from repairs for the second time.
Again problems with it.
Now the connection from camera to the flash didn't work.
Back to the store again.
Lucky I have a backup camera.
One tiny one on the high tide line
For the Dosima
More small ones. Considerably more than the last few days. Brisk W wind, and pretty calm seas. Tide was incoming
