Set off for a trip to Ardwell Bay and passed Ardwell church and decided just had to stop for a photoshoot. Have always thought it was a beautiful church in such a rural location but today it looked stunning with blue sky and fluffy clouds behind and the rhododendrons out.
What a great venue for a wedding, lovely from any angle and no gravestones to spoil the view
Carved cross on the stone post
Eventually arrived at Ardwell Bay in time for a picnic lunch, the bay looked beautiful and deserted on such a lovely day too!
Where else in the country would you find this, empty sands
Unfortunately where its off the beaten track it doesnt get cleaned up either!
Sandwich Terns preening...
...and flying.
Off on our walk, a footpath sign is an unfamiliar sight in Scotland although many more are appearing
Rusting barbed wire on the shore
Beauty and the beast!
Rubbish has been here for many years
Ringed Plover and Dunlin
Painted Lady Butterfly
Wheatear and young
Beach litter collected over many years
Nest on the cliff
Quite large could be a ravens
Beautiful Dunlin in summer plumage
Large pebbles on the beach
Why cant people take their rubbish home?
Back home the farmer had been making hay while the sun was shining...
Another photo opportunity on our doorstep
