Saturday the ocean was so calm. Had a few minutes to step out on the
balcony to look around. The Pond was filled with loons. Singles and in rafts of
6-12. Must have seen at least 100 all around. Then mid dayish, I am in the
condo's annual meeting, look out side and a flock of gannats fly by. must have
been about 8 or so. I had seen some earlier so I wasn't surprised but so close
and with out any nocs, or scope. I have had third thoughts about Pelicans, we
were in a heated discussion about the roof. Think its too early for them though.
Coming home on Sunday, going over the bay bridge, must have seen 8 osprey.
they were everywhere.
Sunday was such a waste. And I am too much a fair weather birder to go
down to the inlet. lol. It was a good day to snuggle up with a honey, a good
book, some coffee, and watch the ocean and the storm.
