Nature

Woo hoo! Let's go on a walk!

Almost every day Penny, Kevin, and I go on walks down by the beach here. It's pretty cool, and we've seen a lot of nature. Unfortunately, nature usually likes to hide from me when I bring my camera.
I've been pretty persistent, though, and the other day we really hit the jack pot!



That's a floating dock, and a bald eagle is sitting on top of it eating a fish.
The eagle flew off, and another one landed there to eat.

Then they both flew to a nearby tree to hang out.

Other than that, here is the nature I've captured on film.
Dead crab entrails, after being eaten by seagulls:
Seagulls:
Cormorants: (These are really cool birds! I love watching them fish and seeing if I can hold my breath as long as they can. And no, I can't.)
And a starfish:
He is a lot prettier in this picture than a couple days later when I walked by at low tide and saw him as a pile of goo.

I was watching an episode of the TV Show Bones the other day. That particular episode was set in New Mexico somewhere. It was really funny how they referred to the people there as "desert people". Near the end one of the characters said something like "Let's go back to where there are living things." :) Living things (aka: Nature) sure are fascinating! :)

But I'm sure Bones is based in like New York or Chicago. I guess there are a lot of people and cockroaches, but does that count as nature? :)
