Hasn't the summer been lovely? I know it might sound odd, but its been too nice to take the camera out on our dog walks. Sometimes having the camera with me stops me from looking at everything because I am too busy thinking about taking the right kind of picture. So my camera has largely stayed at home, even though I have seen some great things recently and wished I had it with me! Like when we went fishing for mackerel and three seals (one just a pup) came over to see what we were doing, so close to our little fishing boat that I could look into their lovely dog-like eyes. The sea was so quiet and still that it was almost eerie. The catch was quite good (we were throwing them back in - never take more than you need!) and when we came home Kizzy was fascinated by the fish. She stood with her head hanging over my shoulder as I sat in the garden gutting them, watching my every move. Mac, on the other hand, was too busy draping himself over my sofa to take much notice of anything. When I cooked the mackerel I did one each for the dogs, carefully taking all the bones out as you would for a toddler. The amount of drool was phenomenal and I certainly had their full attention for at least five minutes! A good day was had by all.
With my camera largely left in the house I managed to do some spying on Delores the cat and now have proof that she does virtually nothing all day!
