1, JUNE 2025. SEATON SANDS, HARTLEPOOL.

 


Beach Buoy woke at 5-20.

It was a sunny morning.

He could have dashed to the beach.

He didn't, now that he has forever.

He made a coffee and had an indoor sit and think.

He slightly regretted not dashing to the beach as around two dozen Geese passed over the back garden on way to the sea.

He was sure it would have made for an excellent photograph.

The sighting still gave him a push to make a move.

Beach Buoy and a less than enthusiastic Another Dog reached the each at 6-39.

Scruffy and his mam where heading back to the north, along The Esplanade with a lady and her Greyhound.

A Cyclist rode to the south end of the Esplanade.

He dismounted.

He took a photograph of his bike and the sea beyond.

Beach Buoy and Another Dog headed for the beach access ramp.

The cyclist returned north.

"Morning."

"Morning."


It was warm and Sunny.

There was a pleasant breeze from the west.

The Little Terns chattered away.

A lady headed north with her dog.


They walked to the sea.
The tide was high.
It was a short walk.

They walked southwards along the water's edge, following barefoot footprints that went both north and south.
Out in the bay, Gannets dropped like cannonballs.
Two Oyster Catchers whistled their way north then south.

The Beachcombing Border Collie Couple were coming northwards.
Beach Buoy let them have the water's edge.
It must be slim pickings when the strand-line and the water's edge are one in the same?

Mr.Gunn/Lunn and excellent dog Alfie caught up.
 They chatted.
Beach Buoy made a fuss of the little dog.
 
They went their separate ways.
Mr.Gunn/Lunn and Excellent Dog Alfie up on the "Easy." route to continue their circular walk.
Beach Buoy and Another Dog walked the low level route.
More of a point to point.

"Morning Mate."

It was 7-18.

Beach Buoy added the five suitable stones.

He patted 

THE 

stone.


Beach Buoy had a sit and think.

Team Muzzled Dog came up to Stubborn Dog Stack.
They chatted, before continuing their walk.

Sand Martins whizzed by heading both north and south.


Sand Martin at Stubborn Dog Stack.

In time, "See you mate."


Down on the low level route.

They returned to the north.
The lady with a red coat and a brown dog headed south along the water's edge.
"Morning."
"Morning."

The man who once had a Beagle but now has a Spaniel was heading south.
He turned, returning North with Beach Buoy and Another Dog. 
They chatted as they walked.


Up on the Esplanade, they went their separate ways.

BEACH BUOY.
