We finally saw some herons

We often would see herons sitting out front fishing as well as when we walked the beach. This is the first since we got here two months ago that we have seen them.

I put in both photos even though they are similar.

From front to back, sitting heron, fisherman, oh that is our sailboat again and a shrimp boat far out.

Loving the waves the past few days.

They did not stay long but I certainly enjoyed them.

Someone asked about the tides. Yes the tides that I have photographed are normal. At least once per month we have really low tides which are great for shell collecting and a very high that brings in the waves. Nature is so interesting. Of course the moon is involved but I have yet to study that. Maybe one day when I have nothing else to do – wonder when that will happen.

Another person mentioned that the beautiful sailboat is not very dog friendly.  We actually met a couple one year that had a catamaran and had trained their dog to do its business on the webbing between the two hulls. But what about letting your dog run on the beach? Hopefully they do from time to time.

Photos taken in front of our home back in Kelowna. We are so fortunate to see then both here and at home.

    Herons certainly are interesting birds to watch, and veracious eaters!
