The new fog horns. (High powered Electric speakers)
Luckily they only went off 2 nights for a short time.
Ear Plugs are supplied in the cottages...
I prefer the old air horns!

My older dog would fear and loath these horns.
Interesting shot.

I hope rock musicians don't get any bright ideas. Great view of the horns! V

I wouldn't want to be standing next to them when they go off, Martin!!
A fine documentary shot.

I bet they are deafening when they go off, Martin. Good job ear plugs are supplied!!
Karen Stuebing28-Oct-2013 21:28
I bet you can hear them a long way off. I like the way they're stacked up and tethered against the wind. V.
