Connecting with Nature

This morning I took a walk along the shoreline during low tide. As I walked I was enjoying watching crabs walking along the sea floor looking for their next meal. I explored the tide pools with their abundant sea life. I watched a couple paddle their kayaks across the quiet bay. Afterwards I took a seat on a fallen tree just to relax and take it all in. While I was sitting, a Great Blue Heron flew over my left shoulder and landed on a small island approximately 100 feet offshore. After about 10 minutes of looking for something to eat and not finding anything, it took off and flew right towards me. It landed approximately 50 feet in front of me. A couple of minutes later it went fishing and I was able to catch the action with my camera.
