Penetration of Plunge Pools and Other Key Holes

 In the comments of the previous post, on Thursday I said to Dinahmow that I was going down to the beach again, and these are the photos I took while I was down there.

 It was a really nice, bright, sunny morning - relatively warm when sheltered from the cool breeze - so I spent far more time down there than I intended.  And, because it was low tide, I ventured beyond the End-of-the-Line!

Canyons and river valleys in miniature!

Here's an old groyne penetrating someone's plunge pool (not The Very Mistress's this time)

Dinah's "little man" at the End-of-the-Line

I don't know where his measuring instrument is, though?

Mud slide! And, yes, of course I threw rocks in it (most satisfying).

Oh, dear. The sea still hasn't cleared up all the mess from that big cliff fall back in June

I think this might be some preliminary work before repairing some of the revetments?

A groyne of dimishing returns (those little squares - which you may have noticed before - appeared after the aforementioned cliff fall)

My stone spirals from the 5th October are still there! Sort of...

I think people or seagulls must have ruined the yellow one - it can't have been the sea as the black one (which is much lower down) is still in one piece (almost)

Fixed! (with another collection of stones)

I couldn't lock this stone spiral into place as I couldn't find the key!

That oystercatcher is back...
