From the pen of Derick Thomson






"Bayble bay below me, and the village on the skyline...."



".... the eternal action of the ocean, its seeking and its searching between the pebble stones and in the rock crannies under the sand of the cove; the everlasting movement of the village, death and christening, praying and courting, and a thousand hearts swelling and sinking, and here, the plover runs and stops, and runs and stops."

  3. Runs and stops, yes that describes a plover exactly so!
    Could one of those houses across the bay belong to Pat? Love this photo!
