Coast road this morning

Bit of a sea mist blowing in.

 

Nice one Zigs,

Same on the 14th so the weather person says

 

All week by the looks of it, should burn off though

 

The white buckthorn looks good Ziggy

 

That'll be the Blackthorn then Jen

Time for Blackthorn Winter That cold snap that comes when it flowers

 

Ahhh, but its finished flowering here.

Does that mean we miss the winter?

 

very nice!

 

is it a bit early this year?

Beautiful pics. That yellow stuff brought back memories, I fell in it as a child - very prickly. Don't like it much, probably for that reason!

 

Looks like above West Bexington (that pond between Gorselands and the village is a very distinctive shape). I've heard there's already a few Mackies about, but probably too many Plaice bashers about tossing their beads out at the moment.

 

Lovely pics Zigs!

That'll be gorse Lynda and yes, it has the most painful thorns of any plant I think. It smells wonderful though and the whole island here is smothered in yellow at the moment.

 

I stopped in a few places along the road. Seen a few fishing camps along the chesil already, as Robbie Williams sang, I can feel it on my line, pulling on my trace its a real big plaice

About another week or so before the main flock of Mackerel come thru

 

Forgot to add these



Alexanders in flower.

And a Cowslip.

 

Is it misty there today, it is here, just waiting for a ship to go past the window and to hear the fog horn

 

No, it's clear and sunny here, wouldn't be surprised if mist rolled in though, yesterday it was sitting on hill tops and hanging around in some of the valleys.
