My Very Happy Place, Langstone Harbour by 30pics4jackiesdiamond

My Very Happy Place, Langstone Harbour

I hate seaweed, but as I was in my wetsuit clobber I paddled in the water to capture some floating, probably amongst human excrement, on the water!

Wild sights seen - a packed heronry with egrets roosting, flying egret and swan, leaping fish, a raptor (possibly the resident peregrine?). No seals or kingfishers, but glorious sunshine and happy Year 13s with special education needs out on the water.

Pocketful of joy today - Him enjoying his birthday ( free pint and candle in nachos, family calls, BBQ in garden ) and the poignant Dday ceremony on TV to bring it home why we have such freedom.
Beautiful still waters.

Love the photo - and the scenery. Bit of a worry about the water quality...

A nice view of the harbor and familiar sights. I'm not sure about the addition to the seaweed and wonder how it could be so contaminated. A+ for wearing the wetsuit, aka hazmat suit.

A fabulous picture!
I'm glad we cannot determine what is in the water :-)
