Flounder Gull

Herring Gull with a flounder, Dunbar harbour. After school we went to the Kittiwake Workshop at the John Muir Birthplace museum. The children were taken down to see where the kittiwakes will be, in a few weeks. None today although they all tried to spot a kittiwake, I really don't think they've arrived yet. Fun anyway.

There was no space for Katie, and she's not 5 yet anyway, so whilst the 3 boys went back to the museum to make paper plate kittiwakes, Katie and I walked around the harbour taking pictures and chatting about the birds, the seal and the fishermen packing their prawns.

Then up to Sweet Occasions for a 30p bag of sweeties. The boys had to get their own bags of course so we were all fortified for the cycle home.
