Strange visitors

We were thrilled to have some of our friends from Prague come and visit us in Redington Shores! And as we were beach walking this nonchalant Great Blue Heron was hanging out as if to emphasize that wildlife is ordinary on this stretch of beach. And it is. Next I'll have to capture some of the unusual looking sea gulls that are really terns.

There had also been a wedding that day and we caught a glimpse of the bride posing for pictures.
