LIFE'S A BEACH!

Thanks. I have a great canvas to work with. What I want to know is why the guy birds are so much prettier than the girl birds. I know, I know, to draw predators away from the nest but most of them don't hang around the nest, right? I know geese do and eagles but what about mockingbirds? Do they? Sorry. Going off into lala land again.

See what I do these days on a Saturday night?  Not much. DH left for his gig at the Porpoise Pub. An olde piece of Floridiana.

Too bad I am worshipping the porcelain god tonight. I would be there in a NY minute.

This guy was there too...wonder what the Mrs. looks like

Barbe, you are correct.  The females are gray.  That is a madarin duck.

Okay, can't imagine a more perfect weather weekend at the shore, so i took lots of pics and i'm posting them all here!!!  this is the delaware bay ... our campground extends to the bay, about a 2 minute car ride ... it's what refreshes me and renews me and does all kinds of good things for my soul and spirit  ... hope the pics do a little for all of you..   this first one has hub in there

a few birds that caught our eye

and here are my toes .. isn't that a necessary part of beaching???   LOL  can sun on water make us any happier?

BarbaraA-for us inlanders, that would seem to be a given; if you're at the beach, why leave?

yes Lisa, I'm rather partial to that one myself!  right along the lines of the sunset one last week with the reflection in the shallow water.  here's today's offering - was trying to get the little bird along the water's edge but I swear he'd run every time I got out the camera!!!
