Marloes round walk

Yesterday was a stunning day, light and weatherwise. We parked up at the National Trust car park behind Marloes Sands and went down to the beach; a quick walk out in fantastic light. We didn't have enough time to look for fossils as the tide was coming in rapidly, but you couldn't miss the sheets of ripple marked rocks of the older Skomer volcanic group, or the fabulous vertical strata of the Silurian corallifereous group. It was great to find a Portuguese man-of-war and the by-the-wind-sailor on the tide line too (next blog)! We then continued around the coast past Rainy Rock and Deadman's Bay out round Wooltack Point and back along the lane to the car park. Lots of choughs; waves of jackdaws streamed through the sky; lazing seals and fabulous coastline. What's not to like?

Views....

...and more views.

Seals.

Beautiful colours and forms.

Jackdaws.
