Boxing Day, or St Stephen's Day as we call it in Ireland, is a day for leftovers, a second
feast of turkey and ham. So this is a leftover from yesterday's walk. Weeks of sub-zero
temperatures resulted in ice forming along the seashore, driving the seagulls inland
in search of food - I saw some helping themselves to food left out on a neighbour's
bird table.
Today the thaw started and now it's raining. I had forgotten how much I hate dreary
wet Irish weather.
