These gulls arrived as soon as we opened our lunch bag

They hung around 


And got a few scraps - fought over a few scraps

The bravest one

The beach roses and their rose hips are my fave photos. Such vibrant colour on the red rose!

Great beach pics, Frank. Glad you had a good time back in your native haunts. I've never seen a real, live seal - they can swim, really? I thought they lived in circuses. And cranberries grew in cans. Well, ya learn something every day.
