One leg...



or two...



Had a sleepless night, but I did my morning head count in the garden (as always). The young ones are getting cheekily close and the local cats have taken to hiding behind the fence below the fence feeders so before I fill them in the mornings I have to play cat-chase first!
We went out this evening, first to Par and then around the lanes and coast road again… ended up at Hemmick (my favourite beach, but a nightmare to drive to!). We had a laugh though and I forgot about my tooth ache :- )

First Juvenile Black Headed Gull I've seen at Par...
