Yesterday I walked for the first time from South Wick to North Wick and then up along the cliffs to Leaper's Geo and on to Fowl Craig, the sun was warm, the grass was green and springey, the thrift glowing pink, nothing but mild wind, the sound of the sea, the call of birds overhead, and on the sandstone ledges colonies of birds as remote from human life as they would have been a million years ago, though we share some of their simple mechanisms and they throb with life.
