The fresh west breeze continues. The clouds were very low all day with fine rain till mid morning.
First a series of shots from Kevin Singleton's visit to Half Moon Bay yesterday. All these birds are readily visible from the cafe area, particularly when the tide is in. There is some very nice detail on some of these images when opened.
