And the beach days just rolled on by…beautiful beach walks and birdwatching drives on the beach during the colder days, excursions to visit other refuges, an alligator visitation, beach art and more…
Love the sign.Marley loving the water. He finally stopped drinking it.Bridge from the beach to someone’s beach house. Beach drives….empty during the week, busy on weekends with families, fishermen, and loiterers like us.The Surfside Jetty extending out along the barge canal. Favourite place for surfers apparently.View east from Jetty Park. Our beach was way at the end.Beach ArtI wonder if he made it across okay?Every day at the beach was different. We never knew what we’d find…one day it was empty crab shells, another day moon shells. One day, after 2 days of deep freeze, we found these giant frozen jellyfish. Another day, after a storm, foam blobs. Another day masses of seaweed or sargassum maybe?A whole day excursion to see Sargent Beach, west along the coast from Surfside. Most amazing bridge structure crossing the intracoastal waterway. Found lots of beach glass on our beach walk.Black Skimmers – not often spotted.So many ospreys willing to pose…Shy Roseate Spoonbills – these stayed long enough for Mike to photograph before taking flight.Loved watching the barges on the intracoastal waterway.Beautiful sunset on the ferry, returning from a bird-watching expedition on the Bolivar Peninsula.
And before we knew it, it was January 20th, our day of departure from The Breeze RV Park.
