Dunraven Bay - 13/04/2014

Sun poured in through the window this morning as had been promised in the weather forecast, in stark contrast to the grey cold of yesterday, and it seemed too nice a day to waste. Without a good idea of where to head, we decided to go to Southerndown.

When we arrived it was a little chilly in the wind so we abandoned to idea to sit on the beach and instead explored the cliffs. I was busy keeping an eye out for the kestrel that I had seen on a previous visit, hoping to get good clifftop eye-level shots like I would have had last time had I been camera ready, but there was no luck. We did however hear and then see two chough flying east overhead as we stopped above Dunraven Bay. We had a nice walk exploring the coastal path, and in typical fashion we saw the kestrel when we were leaving, the Micra struggling in first gear up the steep hill.

When we got home I noticed an angle shades moth on the drive way taking shelter in the nook of the pillar at the start of the drive.
