Day 37 on Captiva

Today I began with an early walk to the beach and on the street near where we are staying and made some photos of the quiet morning beach.

 Walk to the Beach

 

Spotted this Early Bird

I returned and made breakfast of poached eggs, toast, grapefruit with orange juice.   We then made a short visit to the bay to find only a few Brown Pelicans but no White Pelicans today.

Off to the beach for a couple hours sunning and reading.   Al also listened to the radio with his Bluetooth earpiece.  

Since it was such a beautiful day, I decided we should take in the sunset at Ding Darling with the White Pelicans and the Roseate Spoonbills.   I was a bit disappointed there were only 2 Spoonbills present as we usually see a large gathering of Spoonbills at sunset.   But we are always thrilled at the sight of these colorful birds and enjoy taking their photograph.

 

 

 

 

As we approached the end of the drive, we spotted a Yellow-Crowned Night Heron feeding and I got these photos:

 His red eye seems to glow.

 

We had a late dinner of a casserole of Ground Beef, Tomatoes, Garlic, Onions, and Noodles with green salad and hot roll.
