Overlooking where the rivers Kent and Bela meet the sea.

Sewage dumped into bathing spots 21,000 times last year.

Three of the top 5 are on Morecambe Bay, St Anne's is on the Ribble, just to the south of Morecambe Bay, and Allonby Bay is a bit further up the Cumbrian Coast. Absolutely horrific.

Great views over #MorecambeBay, to the Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales are the reward from this walk to Arnside Knott, part of the Arnside and Silverdale AONB. For details, see bit.ly/3ZgOYIf

Looking along the River Kent towards Grange Over Sands.

Looking East from Arnside Knott with the Yorkshire Dales hill in the centre.

View from the Helm, Kendal, yesterday towards Arnside Knott and Morecambe Bay.

The view from the Helm, a hill near Kendal towards Morecambe Bay. The foreground is the green top of the hill with a trig point on the right and 3 dark figures on the left. Beyond that are green rolling hills and an inlet of Morecambe Bay. The sky is a mix of light grey clouds and an area of light blue sky. The photo is taken almost directly into the sun and the figures cast long shadows

New walk added to website. Hampsfell from Grange-over-Sands in #Cumbria. An easy circular 'stroll', which should have had great views to the Lake District but unfortunately didn't!. For details, see bitly.ws/ypnM

Another from this afternoon's walk on Warton Crag: Old Man's Beard (Clematis vitalba) clambering though Blackthorn, just before the sun went down over Morecambe Bay.

Back in 2017, on a whim, we attended a conference at #LancasterUniversity on Rare #butterflies of #MorecambeBay.

One of the presentations was on the Duke of Burgundy (Hamearis lucina), and just two days later, having joined @savebutterflies we found ourselves on a work party planting the Duke's larval food plant – primroses – in South Cumbria.

I was hooked. Got involved in surveying habitat, counting adult butterflies and then hunting for eggs and larvae.

The start of my butterfly obsession.

Far #Arnside and #MorecambeBay this morning. Lovely to feel the sun on your face after a week of rain.

This is Silverdale, a coastal area of salt marshes, estuaries, Morecambe Bay, and low limestone coastal hills.
