I used spend the school summer holidays on this beach, as we lived up the road, there used to be an archway going across to the island but that has eroded now. Health & safety didn't exist either!!

It was a grey old day!

 

Botany Bay is linked with the history of smugglers. In 1769 smuggler Joss Snelling and his gang were caught with contraband on the beach by the Revenue Patrol, after a fierce fight Joss escaped. Joss survived to become an old man, who was introduced to Princess Victoria on a visit to the area. He died in Broadstairs in 1837. There is also Joss bay a litte further up I wonder who that is named after!

Cap'n Jack Sparrow: We be sailing to Botany Bay

Me: Can't we go in the car it's only next to Margate!

The Royal Society of Natural Philosophy is pleased to announce the opening of a Botany House in Mooreton Bay, Alicentia. To advance the study of the flora of the New World, The Society has managed to engage the services of renowned Corlander Botanist, Sir Jonah Banks. Banks has set up his quarters in Botany House, a building in Mooreton bay built specially by the society for the study of Botany. Located roughly in the centre of the settlement, the land adjacent to the building has been set aside for future Botanic Gardens - a planned green oasis in the middle of a bustling town!

Facing westward. The large tree that dominates the scene is a magnificent specimen of Southern Live Oak (Quercus virginiana).

 

As one would expect given its locale, the branches of this lovely monster are festooned with Spanish Moss, otherwise known as Tillandsia usneoides. Actually not a moss at all, this clump-forming freeloader is in fact an epiphytic (tree-dwelling) bromeliad, a highly adapted flowering plant in the same family as the pineapple. To get a closer look at this amazing epiphyte, see Part 28 of this set.

 

In the previous, Part 30 description, I mentioned that another giant on the Pinckney site, a Southern Magnolia, was a member of the ancient magnoliid lineage of flowering plants. Here, however, we have representatives of the other two great angiosperm groups: the Southern Live Oak is a eudicot, and the Spanish Moss is a monocot.

I've lived in Kent all my life a yet strangely this weekend was the first I'd ever heard of Botany Bay and the first time I've visited Deal Pier. I wonder what other gems Kent has waiting for me.

I drove down this road this morning, before dawn, to get to my sunrise location. It's a little spooky in the dark.

In and around Broadstairs, Kent UK

I did not go far on this day! I just went to the lawns of our condos!

It was the Shaggy Mane/Inky Cap that caught my eye initially. I found just a few other fungi growing along the paths.

 

Thanks for visiting and commenting. They are all greatly appreciated

although not a very large beach the landscape here is quite unique compared to most beaches here in the South...the tides have long since eroded this once beautiful plantation ,two originally and created these skeleton trees...truly quite a pristine place,,swimming would be cautionary due to all of the stumps in the water that are unseen..but just sitting and viewing is gift enough,or adding to the shell art others have created along the path..have a blessed day one and all..

Will we survive? Or, maybe we already did survive and the future is an illusion.

The iconic sea stack at Botany Bay in Broadstairs is slowly eaten away by the tide over centuries. This, coupled with the strong winds, is causing chunks of chalk fall onto the beach. The white and finely grained limestone ball that you see here is a case in point.

Another one from Botany Bay, but at a faster shutter speed with no ND filters this time. Just to show the difference, I will post a long exposure from the same position tomorrow.

Then fairly new unit 8163 waits in Botany yard with 2471 oil train bound for points south on 29 July 1988. The area to the left looks for all the world like future railway works but was actually associated with the adjacent I.C.I. (later Orica) plant expansion.
