A dry morning here so after I put 2 chicken ¼ with herbs,spices,carrots and onions in the slow cooker I headed off for a little stroll to the beach. The sky showed signs of a good day with patches of blue popping through.
Down at the beach the wind was whipping up and it was a lot cooler.
I snapped a ship passing the triffids,danger here in stormy seas I would think. It was a full zoom shot so not too clear.


I caught these birds feeding on the tide line,rich pickings for these.


The sea got rougher,the wind blew stronger and the weather was closing in.


The rain came 5 minutes after I reached home and has been heavy ever since. So much for the early promise of a good day.
