SEATON SANDS 15 SEPT.2019. AGAIN.

Around 12 hours after his earlier visit, Beach Buoy was back on the beach.
Stubborn Dog came along also, as per normal.
It was 6-30 pm.
A Girl Racer sped through the car park and parked nearby.
Then headed off along the promenade with her friends.
It was a fairly mild and milky evening.
A few couples walked their dogs on the beach.

The tide had not long turned.
Trapped Sea water was heading back to the Sea as keenly as Beach Buoy does.
The tide had been quite high; almost to the Dunes.
Beach Buoy looked out onto the bay.
It would be dark tonight by the time Longscar Rocks were exposed by the retreating sea.
The Mermaids will be combing their hair by moonlight tonight, with beach combs in hand.

Beach Brick...

Up in the dunes a weak sun was partially hidden by clouds, reminiscent of stacked beach stones.

Sea Pottery.
As he approached the grey Rocks Beach Buoy noticed a couple.
Well they were and they weren't...
the man and a dog were walking well ahead, the woman was walking a couple of minutes back with arms crossed.
It looked like they had had "The Talk."
The young lady didn't look too happy.
The man slowed and waited for her to catch up little.
Good Luck.....


Well,
now, heres a thing.......
When Beach Buoy had reached the Grey Rocks he took out his mobile phone and started the camera; he had caught a glimpse of something.
Could have been a Seal's head or back?
No.
As he looked closer it seemed to be some seaweed?

The phone pushed  deep into a pocket.





Then a large wave broke; bigger than the one that can be seen above.

A Large Seal swam along the length of the  
breaking wave,
It arched itself and then jumped out of the sea completely, over the wave as if it were performing in some sort of marine show.
Beach Buoy may not have a picture, but will be always be able to reprint the shot in his mind.
It was 7-07 pm
The German Shepard Owners Club had arrived, like some
7 o'clock night shift.
The large dogs were heard from a distance with  their deep barks.
The Humans were seen from  the same distance with their hi viz coats...
time to go.......
