Sharks, Birds and Butterflies

We had a brilliant day out yesterday at St. Gothian Sands and Nanquidno. The first set of
pics are from St.Gothian.




There were a lot of Basking Sharks in the Bay at Nanquidno, probably making their way
around to Sennen Cove.

    You obviously had a great day out & the usual array of fab pics. I bet the Basking Sharks were drawing the crowds?

    Beautiful nature photography. I don't think I've seen any of those birds first hand. That blue butterfly sure is eye-catching. Lovely post!

    You have a lot of photos here...and those sharks! Yikes...there are a lot in the water. I just got back from my vacation to the ocean (I've fallen so far behind on visiting blogs) and the life guards cleared the waters 3 times because sharks were sighted. Made me a bit nervous to get back in the water (but I did anyway!). Per your comment: yes, I love Cornish Rex cats. I have one named Bip. His breed was developed in Cornwall, England. Are they popular in your town? He is the sweetest cat...I need to post a few more photos of him.
