out and about - 2017
10 May 2017 .............. Sunset at South Stack
Another super day and beautiful evening - and I was up at South Stack.
Fabulous colouring on the cliffs - and fabulous cliffs - this part of the cliffs is just covered in sea birds at this time of year - loads of noise and birdie poo !
A closer view of one part, showing some of the birds - are they guillemots - I am not really a birdie person.
It seems to be an amazing life style, to spend 9 months of the year at sea, then in spring to come ashore to cliffs and rocky islands to breed, then head off to sea again for the next 9 months.
Funny to think that in a couple of months all those cliffs round South Stack will fall totally silent again, and the rain will slowly wash away all the white decorations, back to just rock again.
The sun gradually sinks lower behind South Stack lighthouse -
Round in the other direction, and the sun is still lighting up some more of the amazing cliffs along this bit of coast, with the long flat Penrhyn Mawr peninsula in the background.
The sun as it dissappears behind a bank of cloud, and it is surprising just how much the sea has changed colour now.
