Morning on the Wirral.

Last night....predicted for the next few days was gorgeous weather, and guess what? ..totally wrong, but not to be defeated I tried to make the most of it. At Meols I managed to capture a lovely Little Egret fishing for food, even though it was very cloudy, it was still worth watching it wading in the little pools. By the time we got to Hoylake the sun was beginning to put in an appearance as the tide was coming in....this is where I caught sight of a magnificent abundance of Oystercatchers and Herring Gulls (at least 2000). Later in the car at New Brighton, I was tucking into a sandwhich and steaming coffee when I spotted a few Sandwhich Turns on the beach...obviously coffee and sandwhiches were abandoned in favour of taking these lucky shots from the car window. So all-in-all it was a very good day!
