New Crew Member

Over the last few weeks the boat shed has had a regular visitor in the form of a Wren which seems to have made the shed his personal larder. This search for food is achieved by working down the south side windows stopping at each one checking for flies and it even checks out the crews coats for any morsels while flitting along the coat rack. Initially the bird appeared to be a bit camera shy disappearing whenever attempts were made at getting a photo but finally seemed to pose for a few shots.

Checking for flies
This week the early morning spring tide was used to float Shamrock from her dock to the slipway for a day while her dock was re profiled. She is now back in the dock waiting to be re-rigged for the coming visitor season.
