Ducks

Today as it was quite overcast we made our way via the village shop to the beach. Had a great walk along paddling an throwing stones for the Wonder Dog! Lots of sea pinks and lovely little yellow alpine type flowers to see. Today on the river saw the female red breasted merganser and the wee ones as did Ruaridh. He barked and they raised themselves out of the water their wee backsides going like outboard motors to get away. When the passed me they were swimming again, took this photo, coughed and they took off again. They look so funny but moved too fast to get an image!
Back home had lunch then I made a soda bread did some more strimming. Made the dough for pizza's for the dinner and some coleslaw.
Spoke to mum she is fine had been in the garden doing a 'bit', trying to get who waters her garden sorted out!!
Made the pizza's with the coleslaw tasted delicious.
Did quite a bit of knitting. Then to bed reading an interesting book 'The House of Special Purpose' about the last of the Romanov's. Goodnight.
