Hello Hello Hivians and welcome to our second Wednesday in March!
In last week's post for #wednesdaywalk Wandering around the home of golf I said ...
I can't wait for some good weather!
And blow me down but it duly arrived the next day and lasted until Sunday!
This then, is a trip down to our local beach on Saturday 8th March 2025.
One of my ulterior motives for going to Seafield beach which is this one, is that you have to walk past a street vendor selling hot food unless you walk through the supermarket carpark.
We do have picnic tables, so no excuse not to sit and eat.
The carpark had some cars and I forgot that we are on a Saturday. Good early weather brings people out.
The roll was bought and included two thick slices of bacon, a Lorne (or flat) sausage and some grilled onions.
Two of them and a cup of coffee for £!0.50 was pretty damn good in my book. It's only a minute to walk to sit and eat.
To the beach we went and I did notice there is some more erosion with the storms over the winter.
It could have been a heat haze but I am more prone to say it was the haar or sea fog/mist that was over the water making it look so hazy.
If you swivelled around 180 degrees and look inland you see the blue sky courtesy of Mr Sun ☀️
You can see some of the banks of sand are being eroded and the sea grasses are being exposed.
Winter plants are still bare but make for some nice shots.
Well actually it wasn't. It was discarded plastic!
My trusty grabber came in handy. When I know we are going beachcombing on a winning beach, I sometimes take my grabber which acts as a great rake.
I can't be arsed popping up down like a yoyo every ten seconds, so it comes in handy
The tide was not far off from being high. No it doesn't smoke weed, for you landlubbers we have a high tide and a low tide. Low tides are great as the sea has gone out and there is plenty of space for people to walk.
High tides are great too, but you have to watch your feet when walking close to the waves so you don't get wet!
The Cosat del Sol and Costa Brava in Spain can look like concrete jungles with all the hotels and apartments.
When the weather is like this, our wee beach gives off concrete costa vibes!
Teal Burn dives the beach
No it is too fluffing cold to wade through the burn and so we will not be crossing to the olther beach today!
The raven closest to us was a noisy wee shit. You can see the one on the left coming into land on the concrete block, and blimey the one on right was giving it fluffing laldy!
It turns out that the beach got quite popular and there are some people mass collecting seaglass off the beach to sell!
Cheeky fluffers, I think we should only take what you use personally.
I guess this the human habit though and why we exploit our resources to death!
There were some colourful shards of pottery and I even found a wee blue bit of glass!
Time to head back and bid farewell to the waves.
It was not just me who is enthralled with waves, many dogs love to get out there and this one was no exception!
The little ones however would only dip their paws in!
It was time to head back towards home.
The great news was that we encountered two big puffy and fluffy bumblebees.
I must admit when I think of bees it is bumblebees that I think of.
And boy aren't they fluffing cute!
Spring is coming, as the buds are telling us!
I hope you enjoy mt frolic in the sun on the beach!

What a lovely walk you had, Teng. I love your grabber. So, is that how you go with it all the time when you are out?
The images were captured nicely and they all look beautiful.
I rarely take it Busayo, but I knew we were going to do beach combing so I took it. It is also great when I want to grab Mrs T's arse in public and she is just that wee bit too far away🤣
Hahaha 😀 😆 you are so funny.
Well, that's kind of being romantic even in public, you know? 🤣

It's good that the sun is finally out and the weather is better on that side of the planet! Walking on the beach can be therapeutic, and in your case, even productive because not only do you find “rock treasures”, you eat a good sandwich and even take great pictures, like these. Not to mention that you will make money doing reviews of your walks. ;D A big hug, Ed!
Well the sun was out, but then went away again! The sea is wonderful, the fresh air makes me feel alive! Thank you Nancy and a big hug to you for reading my reviews ;)
Looks like it was a really nice walk. I am hoping that my wife and I can start getting out on some of the trails soon. It's been too long to be cooped up inside!
Yeah cabin fever would send me round the bend. Do you ever put your winter woolies on and go trudging through the snow into the woods or anything?
No, not really. It's much too cold most of the time and I don't really have proper winter boots.

I can see that you had a nice walk. Those Ravens were really something especially the one on the mini cliff giving the eyes 😁😁
Yeah they deserve their own post, I will make one into feathered friends one day, as I took loads of their pics and even a wee video if I remember correctly!
😂😂😂 very good boss boss
Sure looks a nice day and a great spot for a walk and that sandwich sounds so good
Thanks for joining the Wednesday walk and have a good day
I like those raven making noise or complaining about something to each other. It makes me laugh😁. The sun still out till today?😌😛.
The sun has gone again!
They ravens really were funny, and it is the little things that make us laugh.
