Surfing and gold bars on Seafield beach in Scotland

Hello Hello Hivians

Wednesday is a great day to post about a walk and today is no different. We are heading down to the beach here in Kirkcaldy.

Actually I got lamblasted with a summer cold so this is a day late!

Note that this walk was after some rain and winds! We are going to have a wee bit of everything!

Let's go and explore

Did you know that we had our very own Banksy? Hehe okay maybe not, but this sure brightened up one of the Churchill barrier concrete blocks.

They are about a metre in width so this was a biggish toy truck!

But we are here to walk on the beach not talk about Banksy inspired toy tonka truck drawings on concrete blocks!

We ventured onto Seafield beach just beside the Morrison's supermarket.

Erosion with the weather taking place as some of the grassy dunes have been laid bare so to speak.

Whenever we go to the beach at low tide and Mrs T is with me then it will be a case of looking for interesting things, be it pottery shards or coloured sea glass.

It also means picking up plastic ...

Please do our planet a favour and if you ever see plastic when you are out walking anywhere, pick it up and throw it in a rubbish bin ....

A big plastic hook thing ... Do you know what it was? I didn't into the recyle bin at home it went though.

We ended up having a good chat with thie wifey and her cute wee dog.

Turns out she makes alot of art with the the things that she finds and showed us so many pics of what she made on her phone!

Her pup one was one cute wee fluffer!

There was a wee swell running, but it was not as rough as it had been.

The birds of course never mind the weather, there is food in that water so they are always watching and waiting.

One thing that the rough weather does is stir the sea up and then translates into things getting moved and displaced on the beach.

Next thing I know, I get a shout from Mrs T

"I found a gold bar!"

She can be a joker, can Mrs T.

I come rushing over to find the gold bar is a bloody yellow tile.

Ah well it was in good condition, I shall give that to her!

That view tho....

I took a few panoramic pics.

There was someone watching me, wonderful what the fluff I was doing!!!

Mind you he could have been watching the wind turbine ....

Even though my background is in the Oil and Gas Industry, I do love wind and tidal energy generation!

This drilling rig has probably seen the last of its days on active duty.

Or the pup might have been looking at something in the water that caught my attention ....

A black blob ... what was it?

A surfer!

Well a paddler getting into position.

Of course I thought of riverflows and her surfing. I wonder if she has done any in Europe!

Then he got into position and waited ....

We meanwhile , carried on with our beachcombing!

That time of the morning is mostly doggie exercise time, as this lady I presume was a dog walker as she had a motley crew indeed.

We close up with some scenic shots.

Across the water from us is Edinburgh, which got flooded last week with all this rain!

I leave you with nature at her finest...

The clouds in the sky,can you see the mountain peak, and the rolling waves in the sky?

I loved the light rays on the beach from the different clouds, it looks like they were pillars!

This post is also my last May 2024 walk for #wednesdaywalk which was started by the wonderful @tattoodjay.

Thanks for visiting and enjoy the rest of your day!
