November flowers

At Mud Bay.

Early, pale sunset. Everything's turning brown, but the tansy's still going strong.

New tansy buds.

Sea rocket, sheltered between the rocks on the shore.

Same photo, showing dying stems.

And one little brown mushroom in wet grass.

I'm playing catch-up, after a slow November; these photos are from several weeks ago.

Driftwood "statue" tied up in old eelgrass.

Wonderful stuff! Really. I'll explain why, tomorrow.
