The last couple of evening have been perfect for Wastart walks - mild with wonderful clear light. At 8.30 the temperature has been 17.5c. Grey Granite and Rufus have enjoyed pottering as far as Craig Ogston admiring the orchids and enjoying the calm evenings. There have been several small boats out in the bay, last night joined by a canoeist and line fishermen on the rocks by the car park. In the low sunlight the gannets look especially bright white. Grey Granite was surprised last night to see a group of 3 herons in a slow ponderous fly past towards Quarry Head. They were quite far out to sea and flying as a group, crying harshly to each other as they flew. Grey Granite thinks that herons are more numerous this year but usually sees solitary birds closer to shore along the Wastart.
