Last of the Lyme light

Finishing work in Charmouth late this afternoon allowed for a quick detour to Lyme Regis before heading home. A Dipper (above) on the River Lym was my first in Dorset, and gave much better views than the one which treated me to a whirring fly-past in Scotland last week. Down on the Cobb, Herring Gulls were gathering and half a dozen Purple Sandpiper (above) were catching the last few rays of the sun.
