Monday 27th June (Back to Normal in Cornwall)


Mr. Kite looked out of The Joint window to see two palm trees surrounded by swirling Cornish Clouds depositing real Cornish Drizzle. This being Cornwall in summer; Mr. Kite was not surprised. A little later the Cornish Drizzle became Cornish Rain. But in the gloom of a Cornish summer Mr. Kite did spot Carrion Crows, Kestrels and a Common Buzzard.

Just after midday The Incapacitants went for a walk from Porthcurno to Sennan Cove along the coastal path. With the usual gulls in the air a seal was swimming near The Minack Theatre watched by an audience standing on the terrace of the theater. Occasionally the sun appeared for a few seconds but overall the mist rolled in from the sea making it a chilly walk. Towards Porthgwarra The Incapacitants stopped to watch Rock Pipits feeding.

Now Porthgwarra has Chough but today they could not be seen although Northern Wheatears could. After a cool walk in swirling mist Mr. Kite returned to The Joint for a Tetley tea. Cheers from cool, cloudy and dull Cornwall.
