Looking from the beach at South Shields: when you look the Priory stands out as you head towards South Shields from along the coast from Washington. Birds resting on the rocks

Just by Souter Lighthouse if you look over the cliffs all you can see the birds and the corrosion of the cliffs from the sea, it's a very popular place for bird watchers.

F PIT


This is the F PIT not far from where we live.
It might have been silent for many a year, from
the miners. But life still goes on around the
F PIT with birds flying high and nesting on the
frame work.
