An afternoon in Arne,Dorset.

[fish]

The weather saw a little unsettled yesterday but givven last years summer we decided if we waited for a nice day we would never get anything done so we packed the kelly kettle and headed off to a place i had viewed on google earth on the Dorset coast near the Arne RSPB nature reserve,the weather just got better and being later in the day we saw a lovely sunset as well as the wildlife that come out later in the day.

heres some pics:
