Howth

I had to visit the doctor today, and on the way to visit someone else, took time for a quick walk down the pier in Howth.  Just as I was walking back to the car, a redshank flew in and landed on the shore...
It was a very, very grey day; I had the car lights on both going and coming back home - but the soft muted feel it gave was very atmospheric along the coast.

Howth

Happy Easter!
It's a grey, rainy day here. We had hot cross buns for our breakfast on Good Friday, but I'm saving a lamb roast for tomorrow.
During the week I had to get a medical for work, and afterwards I walked on over to Howth to visit some relatives. As we were having guests in the evening I wanted to get home in good time, but I still had a bit of time to walk round the village on my way back home again.






I have a few more photos, but I'm still trying to get to the bottom of my computer problem. I'm sure it can't be good to get an error message every single time I shut down; next stop is to try a Windows repair as everything else so far has failed.

I saw this blackbird in the trees yesterday when I went down to the butcher. We were watching another pair hunting for worms in the front lawn this morning.
