A day in the life

We finally got back to what we like best, walking on the beach. Each day wer are amazed at how the beach changes. Last year there were not many storms, so for the most part the sand stayed put, but this year its a different beach every time we walk. The picture on the left is of beach erosion, the sand used to be level, but high tides caused a little cliff. I took this picture last week and today it was still present. The water in front is run off - I've read that takes about 2 hours for the first water to appear after the rain starts, in the mountains , and then seems to slowly receed. Today this spot continues to be too deep and move to fast to wade across.

The above right picture shows a couple of birds in water that again only happens with a significant rain - otherwise its a grassy park area. There was another very territorial bird that scared these off and ejoyed a swim by himself.

No day is complete without a sunset. The pic on the left was taken last year and is my favorite sunset picture.

The one below was today. Generally its not good to feed seagulls, but the man, child, and birds sure made a nice picture. Last year I had a bag of belongings drug across the sand by some seagulls looking for my peanuts!
