Cee is calling for photographs of things Found in Nature this week. Oh my goodness, this is impossible. Where do I begin when my files are filled with nature shots?
You can scroll down my posts and see a lot of nature – but that also helps me decide. I’ve been doing the Everglades and the Botanical Gardens. Time for some “Nature by the Sea”.
This Egret is hoping to find some nature-made breakfast in the surf nature is brewing.
Sandpipers are the masters of dual tasking. They usually scurry around looking for little morsels in the surf but always have an eye on me so I can’t get close for that great shot. This one seems to be watching me but every so often would nab a bite to eat.
I think this sign is meant for me not the birds living by the sea. Although it didn’t say anything about not eating the sea oats. Breakfast time.

Ohhh…especially the sea oats took me right back to my childhood in Florida and our vacations on the Gulf Coast. Thanks for the nostalgic drift today! 🙂

Do you think the birds even read the signs, or do you think they read them and then flippantly ignore them?

Pelicans ignore them, sandpipers respect them and then go around and do it from the back. Seagulls grab the sign and fly away with it. 😀

Thanks, Jamie. I wish I could write poetry, and never though of visual poetry. This seems to be my morning for expanding my mind’s view of what I do. 🙂
