Almost all the way back to the car park we used, when we stopped for a short rest, in this little gully, making use of these seats - a real sun-trap even this late in the afternoon. There's a tiny stream down there at the bottom of the gully, hence the bridge. Don't know the name & can't find the relevant OS map to look it up.

By the time we had walked along the beach, almost to the Rendezvous Cafe, it was noticeable just how many people - and their dogs / children - had come out for a wander. The flat rocks do have pools, but normally very little in the way of marine life. This flat rock formation is known as a wave-cut platform, and is often hidden by sand. [Can't take a Geographer anywhere]

Zoomed in a bit to concentrate on the lighthouse. Focus is not the best - a combination of zooming, my hand shaking the camera and the sea-mist. Was sunny, even if the breeze was a little too brisk for me.

Despite the sea-mist, St Mary's Lighthouse was visible as we walked along the beach. Seems like the winter storms have exposed the local rocks - showing as a wave-cut platform formation - not many rook pools at the moment. It is remarkably busy for a Sunday afternoon at this time of year, although the weather has been better than the forecast - sunny, if a very cold breeze.

It makes a change to find a bird has walked over wet concrete - in my experience, the culprit is usually a cat or small dog. I hope whatever it was managed to get those feet washed off quickly - wet concrete can cause nasty chemical burns !

The pollution - mostly plastics - left behind by humans. "Take only pictures, leave only footprints" is a good plan. Not My Image. Fair Use, Education & Comment.
