I’d been awake since about 4AM. I had been thinking that I would take advantage of being awake to get up early, no not that early, 0520 instead of 0535, not too mad. But it would give me an opportunity to do a bit of videoing before the #Breakfastclub starts.
Getting up that 15 minutes early meant that the morning chorus was different. The birds were singing away very enthusiastically, unfortunately just those few minutes meant there were a surprising number of vehicles driving around.
The only movement in the high street were the birds flying around and the few pieces of litter that there were drifting being blown around in the gentle breeze. The smells of sausage rolls coming out of Greggs were making my juices flow, I could almost taste them.
The only sounds I could hear as I approached the waterfront were the shouts and screams of a huge flock of seabirds out in the middle of the harbour, it looks a shoal of fish might be tempting them.
The pond weed in the cockle ponds is really quite bad. It makes a disgusting looking mess on the surface. It’s having an impact on the model yacht club. A lot of weed was removed earlier in the year, so it would be interesting to find out what is going on in the pond. It does make me wonder what has happened to the jelly fish, which seem to have disappeared, pretty much over night.
