We’ve just had 40-50+ minutes of constant thunder rumbling east of the village.

A couple lightening flashes in it too.

I can’t remember last time I heard it go on that long consistently. Amazing.

Red Cans and Boat Plans

Twenty years ago, I visited Baltimore in Co Cork and photographed these people coming from a boat in the harbour. They were in great form, with smiles all around. 🙂

A new one for me, I haven’t the likes before. If confirmed, a rare visitor apparently. Maybe very rare to these hedgerows.

It stopped on a branch, I stopped on my bike. We looked across at each other for a moment.

I’m going to cycle out there again today, see if I can get another sighting and hopefully a photo for confirmation.

For now, it’s the closest match I can find.

Even at 3-500 metres from where I was sat on the cliff, the fin was still distinctly visible.

Friend’s were out kayaking here the day before when they found themselves amongst Basking Sharks & Minke Whales. “The plankton was fizzing”.

While they were out one of the local whale Watching boats arrived.

The west end of the island falls sharply to the grey blue sea, just beyond, zoom in, a Basking Shark fin is visible at the surface.
