Me and Seagull Buddy sitting watching the tide come in …

This morning in lovely sunshine and very mild temperatures, I had a beautiful wander on Rissers Beach. As I sat for a while the rocks to watch the tide come in, I was joined in this task by Seagull Buddy, who like me seemed to enjoy the sight and noise of the rolling waves.

An overcast morning wander at the islands

Regardless of the weather, it is always good to get out and wander a beach or meander along coastal rocks, this morning I was happy to be in the company of the LaHave Islands.

Something I have noticed here, that I cannot recall happening when I lived in Scotland, is that the seaweed changes colour in the fall. Perhaps it did change in Scotland and I simply did not notice …

The fall colours on the other side of the river ...

On this glorious day ~ will they ever end …? (Probably …!!!), I went over to the opposite side of the LaHave River from our home in Pleasantville. In bright sunshine with the river at high tide, the fall colours were again perfect.

I took some photos at the same location in the spring, they can be seen at ~ “The LaHave River from the other side ..” ~

Seals and an extremely low tide ...

On another beautiful South Shore day, we took some visitors for a drive along the road to Green Bay, Rissers & Crescent Beaches and the LaHave Islands.

The tide was extremely low, in fact it was the lowest I had ever seen it locally. It was truly amazing to see for the first time, the seabed in areas that I have visited many times before.

At Green Bay, we were very fortunate to enjoy the company of a group of Seals who were possibly also alarmed by the extremely low tide.

Fall colours up close ...

Via the Weather Network, I see that tomorrow will be mostly rain with wind gusts of up to 65km/h (40pmh). With this in mind and still having plenty of leaves on our tress, I went out into the empire to take some close-up pics.
