sentinels on the beach

 
 
We've had two days of fierce hot north winds so it was lovely to hear rain on the roof during the night and wake up to a clear bright day with raindrops hanging on the bushes and no wind.


On the beach the blue herons are on guard and the seagulls can barely fly, having gorged on leftover coconut sago.
(Don't think I'll make it again: it was stodge.)

cats settle in

 
 
The cats have become best buddies - in fact two are easier than one.

But we have to make an appointment to see them in their kitty caves on top of the cupboard...
