Maryport early July 2015


Just got back from another trip up to Maryport where I managed too get on the boat with Simon the chap we bought it from for it's maiden sail. Quite a rough day but the boat handled beautifully and was a pleasure to sail. Unfortunately didn't manage to get any photos of the sail.

Did get a few pictures of some lovely orchids growing along the sea front.


Had a trip out to St Bees Head and walked along the cliff top, the RSPB have made quite a few vieiwing points to look over the cliff top at the sea bird colonies below. Mainly Guillemots, Razorbills and Kittiwakes with a few Puffins on the water. Also saw Ravens, a Peregrine, Kestrel and stacks of Jackdaws.

The dots on the cliff below are Mainly Guillemots lower down and the odd Razorbill higher up.



As can be seen Viv looking better and getting more active by the day but not up to sailing yet.
