Now that I am back home with 50 degree days and 40 degree nights, I just had to post my final walk in paradise on Saturday. I decided I wanted to see one more beautiful sunrise, so I hit the beach early.
The shelling wasn't fantastic....but the beach always is. Once again I had an escort! :)
How awesome is this? This lone dolphin was slowly swimming along the shore, I actually heard him blowing air before I saw him! I missed the perfect picture, just before this he brought his tail out.
There was so much to see, and I took so many pictures I trimmed it down quite a bit...there were pics of the 'typical' sights like both sides of this Atlantic Giant Cockle
I actually saw two of these Lightning Whelks sporting tassels!
Such a beautiful, calming beach...PERFECT therapy for whatever ails you!
There were lots and lots of shells
I found this huge Lace Murex...yes he went home with me! :)
This Calico Crab was alive and blowing bubbles as the surf bumped him in his face...
How HUGE is this Sand Dollar half? Can you imagine it whole?
It's been a long time since I have found a perfect Top Shell...
And of course, I had to take home my Daddy's favorite, a Shark's eye, with a beautiful 'Paul Newman's eye...
And for Jess this Keyhole Limpet went in my bag...
And for Brad, this cute little nutmeg joined the group...
This trip has been one of the most relaxing and enjoyable trips I have had, nothing like the therapy that these beaches provide! I hope you have enjoyed walking with me as much as I have enjoyed bring them to you!
One final look as I head back to the car... Ahhhh Beautiful!
I still have a few more posts coming up so stay tuned!
