Wet seat

Wet seat
A 2015 trip to Cyprus brought us in the vicinity of Larnaca. Here is its Salt Lake, not far from the airport. As can be seen the water is slightly higher than normal and so no sit down for a picnic today. A drifting colony of pink flamingos can just be seen in the distance. See PiP.
Enjoy full screen

Have a great day.

My thanks to Keith Burton for pointing our that these were not pelicans as I first described them as, but flamingos.

It certainly looks a wet spot for a sit down Herb - perhaps alright if wearing wellies! HBM and happy new week.

Not many takers for the seat. A lot of Pelicans on here. Cyprus is a wonderful Island to explore with many different aspects to record for us photographers. I do find it has gone far more touristy over the years and its wonderful coastline is being obliviated by up-market new-build holiday villas. Previous paths we had once explored by the sea were diverted inland by 100's of yards all the time. So its not what it was and it will be a while if ever before we go again.

HBM, enjoy the day.
