A strange disturbance in the sea.
I took this photo about mid-day Oct 2nd 2010, from the Ayre Rd. There were no birds or animals in the immediate vicinity and my friend & I watched this for quite a while, but couldn't think what was causing it.

You're probably right, Steven. It's just that I walk that way quite often and hadn't seen it before.

I have seen this a few times. I'm sure it is outfalls. The same effect can be seen in the Peedie Sea itself but that is caused by springs.
