This guy knows the perfect spot for fishing. And his little seagull friend is waiting in the wings. While researching the bird, I found out that a white heron is the same as a great egret. I wonder what he calls himself? Full, if he can spot a fish. Even though the cropped picture stillContinue reading “Keeper of the boats”

But I wanted to add some character to theContinue reading “Leisurely Float down the Potomac”
Beach Squirrel?
Along 17 Mile Drive in Pebble Beach there are these cute little squirrel type animals that are so curious. I have a feeling they’re not afraid of humans due to all the tourists who feed them. We neither fed them nor pet them, but we did get very close! The original was a little flat. IContinue reading “Beach Squirrel?”
