A beautiful day for a nice long walk on Herring Cove Beach, also the only safe place to walk during the Deer Hunting Season.
As I walked along the beach there was a huge flock of mostly immature Herring Gulls that would lift and fly a little further up the beach and then repeat the process when I got too close again.
Eventually they got tired of the game and moved off shore with another large flock that seemed to be mostly adult birds.
That lasted only a short while and someone gave the order and the entire flock lifted and left the area, not a gull left behind.
I will never understand how such a large group can be so organized.

Herring Cove Beach
Carrot Harvest
Continuing on with the fall harvest from my Square Foot Garden yesterday I harvested the remaining carrots sliced them, steam blanched them and they are in the freezer ready for several winter meals. Next on the agenda will be the Brussels Sprouts and Kale and the last thing will be the cabbages turned into sauerkraut.
