Shore Birds


I'm about the only person I know that loves to watch the gulls at the beach. 
They are sneaky, smart and fearless. 
Before our beach trip I learned that the Cape May/Avalon area is a major hub for bird migration. 
More info:
While I didn't see anything out of the ordinary,
 I did get some nice shots of gulls, pipers and even some swans.






The gull below was doing a little dance in the water to dredge up food. 
It was really funny to watch.




I love to watch the sand pipers run back and forth.

Beach Weekend


My Mother-in-law says I 'step in it' all the time and buy 'it' she means luck. 
This past weekend we were fortunate to be given a stay at a friend's parent's beach condo in Avalon, NJ.
What a wonderful time to visit the beach, there is no one there!
I felt like we had the whole town to ourselves.
On each day we visited Cape May, NJ. 
Most of these photos were taken around Cape May and the light house. 
Such wonderful memories...

















Can you believe I saw I jack o' lantern sitting on the beach? I almost died!
It's like he was waiting there just for me.
