Happy Anniversary.

The wind has returned.  Having said that,  the wind is a constant here in the North East of Scotland, so it has been noted by its absence the last few days.  
Back up to 30 mph plus and gusting to over 40 mph.  But the sun shone....



As it was way too windy for a walk I got stuck in to the Shedudio.  Painting.


I find it quite off putting that Oystercatchers have pink legs.  You would expect them to be orange.  But they are pink.  Also the beaks are different, some pointed and some not, it depends on how the bird attacks its prey.  Shell fish so some beaks prise open the shell and some bash it.





More on the Magpies.

And varnish on the Dandelion.



And a fair bit of sorting and tidying.


Today is the DP and mine 38th Wedding Anniversary.  My favourite card received.  We still haven't fell off the twig.


Hmmm.  Those fags are long gone...


Cheers.

Happy anniversary. I hope you sat down with a glass of vino tonight. Sorry it was too windy to go to the sea, but your paintings are coming on beautifully.
