Hi. Not only is it September, it is almost mid-September! Where do the days and month go, each day the same lately, but racing by. We've had a few grey abalone sky days, not really hot, 80-ish, but very humid. Moisture hovering in the high nineties makes it very muggy and some days I have to air condition just to keep things dry and to help Mo breathe.
Grey days are lovely at the beach, not searing sun, interesting for photos, if we accept ''atmospheric'' instead of sharp and bright.. Let's take a walk?
The beach is less groomed than usual because of the endangered birds and their babies, who are almost grown but still learning to forage.
Gulls with small birds, plovers and sanderlings in front. Ruddy turnstones on the far right.
Gully walked with me for a ways, tho he sticks to his/ my beach.
Porpoises? [sorry thhey were very far away.]
Down the beach to the west I found this large driftood construction or wooden henge.
Another seashell gathering...
Is it for 9/11 remembrances?
Oh no! Not Trump! I thought it was interesting til I walked around to the front. It was for TRUMP 2020, ghastly. Politics do not belong on my beach. I hope it was promptly removed!
I walked east instead.
Oystercatcher footprints and a crab's hidey-hole.
What was in my pocket:

gone to the beach....
Starry-eyed Jack: pieces not sewed.
PS I may be out of touch for a few days, medical treatment tomorrow, so don't worry!

The beach is always so ephemeral. Good luck with your medical treatment, hope everything goes well and you can get back to stitching and walking very soon!
ReplyDeleteI would have accidentally messed up that Trump sign....lol Yuck. Loved all your beach scenes. Hope your treatment goes well. Kit
ReplyDeleteA great feel for the September beach. Makes me want to go there.
ReplyDeleteMaybe someday, when life resumes?
DeleteI love grey September days at the beach, so much more interesting! your pictures are fab.
ReplyDeleteAlmost any beach day is a good day, I enjoy the changing seasons and variety of weathers.
DeleteHope treatment goes well for you!
ReplyDeleteI like the 'atmospheric' beach photos. I think you actually get more detail when it's a little cloudy that get washed out with too much light.
I thought the wooden 'henge' was a 9-11 thing, too, especially with the flag!
I'm wishing for a nice long moderately-cool fall. Not going to hold my breath or anything, but it sure would be a nice change ESPECIALLY from this icky year so far!
Take it easy!
I do love grey beach days. So soothing. Glad you could share it with us :) Interesting driftwood arrangement. Jarring to see the political message, though.
ReplyDeleteOh wow! Hope all that rain gave you relief from the humidity.
Love Jack!
Hope your treatment went well? Wishing you deep sleep, and no nightmares!
Hugs,
Kel
Worst moody skies September has brought you!

ReplyDeleteThank you for the refreshing beach amble. I so enjoy seeing all your feathered beach neighbours and wonderful stormy sky shots. Take care. Penny
