This was taken just up the coast a bit from Carlingford at a spot called Ballagan Point, it is popular with bird watchers and fishermen. Ive been followed by a seal here and just last night a small brown rabbit. Didnt expect to see one on a beach like this.

Some info on Carlingford.
Just over an hour's drive from Ireland's two major cities, Belfast and Dublin, Carlingford nestles between Slieve Foy, Carlingford Lough and the Mourne mountains. A unique blend of natural beauty, spectacular panoramas, myths and legends combine with a modern day cultural infrastructure. Carlingford takes its name from the Norse - 'the fjiord of Carlinn'. The town's sheltered harbour on tranquil Carlingford Lough, may well have provided a useful base for Viking raiding parties but no signs of a permanent settlement have been found. Today, Carlingford is one of Ireland's best preserved medieval towns, founded by the Anglo-Normans in the 12th century, a linear settlement with typical medieval patterns, burgage plots, defensive walls, narrow streets, Friary and Urban Tower Houses. Much of this heritage and atmosphere remains today.

Thanks for looking.
