A bracing walk.

A chilly wind as we walked on the shore on Lindisfarne or Holy Island. Harry, me, my sister & her husband plus Louis the labrador dodged the hailstones & furry caterpillars which incidentally there were hundreds of them crawling all over the sand dunes ! Lots of cowslips too in great swathes among the grasses.

Looks cold. Lovely scene, even if cold.

[Juliette Packham]

last time I went up that way, we went for a run and got rained on by caterpillars every time we went under a tree! must be good caterpillar breeding weather up there

Sounds a bit Biblical - hailstones, caterpillars... I do like this shot.

[fife]

It does look cold!

[Jane Pittenger]

Bee but pretty

[Jean Tookey]

It does look very cold but I like the composition of the shot.

[Rick Schies]

A risky trek the way it sounds.

[Gillian]

Brrrr!!

[Gords]

It's a wonderful area with big skies! We got caught half way across the sands to Holy Island in a thunderstorm - great lightning but a bit scary as we lost sight of land!

[Pat Knowles]

@gords That would be scary, it was surprising how conscious you were of the tide turning especially as it turned to rain & hailstones on our way back.

[Margo E. Dearbhail]

yikes.. quite an adventure!!

[Sue Wilde]

Fabulous perspective here

[Lesley Allen]

You've captured the scene well.

[Lisa]

Beautiful, and I love your description!
