Default Basking Sharks

I am getting reports of large numbers of Basking Sharks feeding some 120 miles west of here,drifting eastwards,and hope to see them off my favorite Whale watching headland with in the next few days.I hope to have photies to post unless their arrival coincides with that of Radiohead on Saturday in which case the photies will be of Thom.

Awwww, that stinks. Hopefully when the vis clears there will be something wonderful to see. That is as well as the amazing sea.

Along with the basking sharks there are lots of Dolphins about and some have stranded in the UK.I know its because they are greedy little buggers but it is still sad to see them die.
