Not many words in this blog but, now and then, a few of my photographs--
Is he juggling in that first photo? Love the one of him on the rock...and hope he didn't crack his head open while trying to stand on it! :)
ReplyDeleteYes, juggling rocks. And I did ask that he not attempt a full handstand.
ReplyDeleteFor anyone who has never been to this beach, note all the rocks in the first photos. It's a long, long walk to the sand beach in the last shot.
The gull is resting on the remains of an old steam boiler from a shipwreck.
A lot of the great lakes shorelines sure look
ReplyDeletelike the sea shore. Is there much in the line
of beach shells, terns and seagulls?
Gulls, lots. Terns, a few. Piping plover nest on some beaches. (Not this one. I think they like more sand.) There are very few shells, except where there are piles of shells, all the wrong kind--mussels that have been brought in from the ocean by freighters and multiplied fearsomely, to the detriment of water quality and other species. Look at the 1000-Mile Walk on the Beach blog, in my Blog List on Books in Northport.
