I thought I would head out to a small harbor nearby and try to get a few photos of our stingrays. Unlucky for me they were out and about and a few local seagulls chuckled to themselves and said they were out for a picnic in deeper waters.
I saw this buoy floating and thoughts of how it must feel to be drifting in the open sea came to me. Imagine just water around and below you with open sky above. A feeling I got was peace with overwhelming silence and then fear of the unknown. Not knowing what is swimming below you or where land is. Luckily My thoughts did not last too long on that adventure as my eyes caught these two love birds soaking up the sun to dry
After a bit of research I found them to be known as Cormorants. I just always called them water birds. They are fast maneuvering divers and these two had attitude. It seems they like cameras and know how far to stand from the camera. If I get too far or too close to them, they would flap their wings and ruffle their feathers as if to get ready for the next photo shoot.
The water was not to clear for sea creatures and the weather was turning Grey and a mist rain was starting
I'll try to catch the rest of the harbor family in future posts as I need to have a chat with those seagulls about a thing or two. I'll keep everyone posted 👌
I would love to float and swim in the sea and soak in the sun. We have had too much rain here it's depressing :D
