NH7053 : Avoch Bay, Black Isle

taken 7 years ago, near to Avoch, Highland, Scotland

Avoch Bay, Black Isle
Avoch Bay, Black Isle
Avoch Bay is very flat so a large area of seabed is uncovered at low tide. This view towards the fisher town and harbour of Avoch is seen at a low Spring Tide close to the water's edge where the seaweed has been preferentially deposited.

In the midground are a series of rafts now colonised by Arctic Terns.
