So this is summer!


Summer has arrived on the North Kent Coast early today.Took Mrs John to see the birdies at Oare Marsh. I took a few shots on my elderly phone, not having a camera. The wee brown birds at the bottom pic are, I am informed, Golden Plovers still in their winter plumage. So now you know.

    A philosophical naturalist, just like Stephen Maturin. Now we need to find you a ship.

    Dear Fred
    I get sea sick. I was the world's only deep sea biologist banned from deep sea boats after I threw up in Discovery when she was tied up in Plymouth docks.

    I know people in the US Coast Guard and the US Navy who get sea sick. So you're not alone!

    Here in the foothills of the Appalachians we're sitting on a most unseasonably warm 73F degrees. Quite a "winter" we're having!
