A visit to Morecambe in Lancashire gave me a chance to look at the art that has been installed as part of the Tern project http://www.tern.org.uk/ All along the promenade and out onto the Stone Jetty are pieces of landscape art. I particularly liked these rather leggy Coots and spread-eagled Cormorants.
The sculptures add a nice sense of place, they could perhaps work better with the aid of some additional interpretation to get folk to connect the sculptures with the internationally important wetland [Morecambe Bay] that they over look.
Whilst looking at the artworks in the gloom of early morning, it was great to see a Peregrine tear through and scare the local Oystercatchers into flight.
