Some early morning ocean life shots to show you.
Don't look at the second photo and tell me what type of bird this was.
Marian's aunt arranged a meeting at the beachfront in a Waffle house and I left her and her aunt to sit and discuss family matters, while I popped out to take some photos. It's always kind to leave females alone to talk about things as they can speak 1000 words per minute, compared to my yes or no singular answer every three minutes hahaha.
Come and look at my shots.
He is a Grey Heron (Ardea cinerea) and he was fishing in the sea. His strike in first photo was a miss.
By now you figured that we were at the sea and a Little Egret (Egretta garzetta) came flying across my screen.
This was my first Whimbrel (Numenius phaeopus) in flight.
A White-brested Cormorant (Phalacrocorax lucidus) came in for a landing.
And of course his timing was spot on.
Finally here was a meeting at a rocky ocean restaurant, similar to Marian and her aunt's meeting and you can see how many words the two central female Grey Headed gulls (Chroicocephalus cirrocephalus) were sharing.
Their husbands were also away taking photos like me hahaha.
I still have to figure out why I am tongue tied at these family meetings. Maybe it is because I don't know the people that they are talking about and it goes something like this,
Uncle Colin was such a good man and aunty Wendy said that she is so lonely after he died, Henry said Megan must take the new pup outside to housetrain the pup and the postman hasn't been around to bring me a letter that aunty Maggie sent to me from Scotland, did you know that she lives there now?
All in one sentence and do you know any of these people?
Neither do I and that's why I can only say "yes".
So please don't blame for for being bad to leave the conversation to them, as I rather do things that I understand :)
And That's All Friends!
