North Devon camping and surfing trip september 2010

Continuing the story of the love life of our little mallard duck. Her partner and one survivor of the five hopefuls take up a strategic position after she has retired to the safety of the duckhouse for the night.

It's two ducklings really!

An afternoon at Lee Bay

I was convincing myself that the waves were good enough to justify changing into the wetsuit and waxing the surfboard... I succeeded: small but very clean!

A field I walk past almost every day on the way to our village shop. It always looks tempting to take a photo but the result is usually disappointing. This morning the frost made it ust a bit more interesting.

Ilfracombe Harbour

I love being on or near the sea, so I couldn't resist taking a boat trip (or three) when I was staying near Ilfracombe. The cliffs of North Devon are really spectacular, as is the harbour itself when you approach it from the sea.

a walk round the farm hedges... Aparently these are Sarcosypha austriaca.

Scenes from the cleave

A stormy sky, tall golden wheat and green grass all caught my eye while out walking.

A low late afternoon sun and vivid blue sky, plus a polariser, have given wonderful colour to this picture.
