Red Sunset


Another great dogwalking sunset down the beach.

The statue is meant to be an Osprey, the national bird of prey - or so the plaque says. I've never heard of anyone ever seeing one anywhere apart from the stuffed ones in the museum, that is. But I'm told they are around. They tend to keep themselves to themselves, nesting up in the mountains, hunting small mammals and generally not bothering anyone.

I do wish Gordon Brown would think about doing something like that.

  2. Excellent photograph, and an even better metaphor.

Any thoughts?
