Boats and birds

at the Fisher Fleet, King's Lynn UK. The birds were vigorously exploring and pecking in the mud between these boats only and nowhere else. I don't know why and can only surmise that some shellfish had been dropped in the water during transfer from a vessel to the adjacent processing plant.

In case you wondered the letters MT indicate the port of origin as Maryport (Cumbria, NW England), LN of course is from Lynn, the convention being to use the first and last letters of the port's name.

The extra was added a few hours later, high tide with some colour in the sky, about 45 minutes before sunset.
