  5. Oh, your second capture reminds me so much on the snad dunes in Holland (thanks for reminding me on good times:) )

    Also, thank you for visiting my new art blog - love the comment you left!

  6. Micha and Nick were both wondering about the origins of the naming of this beach. When I couldn't find anything online, I wrote to the relevant council and received this reply: The earliest record we have found was on a map drawn in 1894 but the map did not give any details. Quite amazing isn't it.

thanks for visiting Snap Happy Birding, and for leaving a comment; I can still see them. Now both my blogs are resting in idle mode. It was time to give other things priority, even though I miss my regular blogging and the feedback that came my way over the years. Take care.
