This message will be removed once it is completed.

Thanks for looking.

Beach Buoy and Another Dog arrived at the beach.

They headed to the tidal sands.

Beach Buoy collected five suitable stones.

The Beachcombing Border Collie Couple were heading back north.

Team One Black Ear were to the north, heading south.

The tide was a canny way out.

The random pipe was on show but the wreck was at sea.

They headed south along the water's edge.

Up ahead, the Man with a Rucksack and a Rottweiler played with his big but friendly dog.

Beach Buoy and Another Dog went from sloping sands , up beyond a strand-line cut.

They walked to the low level route of the dunes.

A jogger made his way to North Gare Pier.

Beach Buoy collected and added two sturdy stones to the sea defence.

As he did so, the Sun cleared the low cloud.

It was 7-29 a.m.

They climbed the small slope to Stubborn Dog Stack.

"Morning Mate." 

Beach Buoy patted.

THE

stone.

He added the five suitable stones.

Ruby.

Beach Buoy scattered some seeds.

He topped up the wildlife water bowl.

He had a stand and a think.

"See you mate." 

They continued to the south.

Like Moths to a flame, they headed towards the Sun.

Like Crows to the seed Crows flew to the seed...

The Turbine Yard beyond the dunes.

Goodness Gracious...

Off to the Tank Traps and beyond.

The driftwood seat at Sand Martin Corner.

Far side of the River Tees.

The Blue Lagoon.

aka North Gare Beach.

Remember this.

As he went down to the beach Beach Buoy could hear hundreds of birds.

A bird cloud disappeared into the distance.

Beach Buoy and Another Dog walked down to the riverside.

The cloud of birds returned.

A Zoom in will help to see them

They had an unusual call.

They returned to Seaton Sands.

NOVEMBER 9, 2026.SEATON SANDS HARTLEPOOL.

 

Beach Buoy and Another Dog headed to the beach.

They arrived at 6-58 a.m.

There was a wonderful mist out in the bay.

It was very atmospheric.

Lovely colour palette too.

Team One Black Ear were up ahead to the south.

Beach Buoy collected five suitable stones.

It was a dramatic-looking morning.

The lady with a red coat and a brown Dog called Jasper came down the access ramp.

To the north, sea swimmers screamed.

It was fresh.

Beach Buoy wore fingerless gloves.

After extensive research, he has come to the conclusion that they are warmer than gloveless fingers.

The light to the north was lovely.

To be honest the light everywhere was lovely.

The beach almost looked to be busy!

The lady who walks the full length of the beach was heading back north.

As they had passed, they stopped to chat.

They agreed that it was a gorgeous morning and that the light was beautiful.

They continued to the south.

They stopped to chat to Team One Black Ear.

Team One Black Ear continued northwards, Beachcombing as they went.

In the distance, the man who once had four dogs headed south with three.

Up ahead, the North Gare Pier Repair Squad worked above the mist.

The mist/fog seemed to a series of strips?

They walked the low level route.

Beach Buoy added two sturdy stones to the sea defence.

On the beach below, the man who once had four dogs carried on south with three.

Distant waves had been shared as they passed the stack.

"Morning Mate." 

It was around 7-30.

Beach Buoy added the five suitable stones.

He patted

THE

stone.

He scattered some seeds.

The wildlife water bowl was fine.

He had a stand and a think.

 A man with a Border Collie walked the water's edge.

Dotted along the grey rocks below, the Three Gatekeeper Crows waited for Beach Buoy and Another Dog to leave.

"See you mate." 

Beach Buoy set one foot on the low level route 

The Crows moved in.

It looked like the Sun might clear the clouds beyond the Pier Workforce?

It did.

They headed back to the Village.

Half of Team Muzzled Dog stopped to chat, they were heading south.

They discussed the wonderful light.

The Sun watched them head back.

Ruby wore pink.

The view south.

They headed north.

Hartlepool Headland appeared out of the mist.

The November Sun blazed down.

It was a memorable morning

Blades and Wings.

Patterned Mist.

Crow's Sunshine Shadow.

Tide still well out.
