Blue sky little cloud.
Last evening left Seaton and walked most of the way to Lyme Regis, moderate to easy walking.
This was another under cliff walk, not as tall cliff face exposed but a much larger area and so wonderfully over grown, perhaps the nearest great britain gets to jungle and a far from common environment these days. (here is plenty of evidence of the fissures that were caused in the landslip which are now covered with lush vegetation but still look some thing to be wary off), there are a few wet places which are slippery under foot, one wet piece of wood was sporting a fine array of fairies bonnet fungi, endless things for any naturalist to probe and walking this section of an evening meant i met nobody.
The gorgeous morning meant an easy stroll into Lyme Regis and wander along the beach looking at abundant fossils, the area has a great history for fossils as the rocks are now Jurassic in age, mention should be made of Ann manning and the great work she did here in the past tirelessly collecting parts of ichthyosaurs as they were exposed from the cliffs and assembling complete skeletons which are now in the natural history museum.
I’m all in favour of education but also recognise that some are just natural for a task, and Mary anning was certainly a natural talent worthy of admiration.

The ammonites vary from one large to many small in a rock.
