South winter Beach Story

 

It is very cold here today (low 60s with no sun) but about 5 days ago it was still in the low 80s so we decided to take a break from holiday shopping and go to the nearby beach.

 

There were a couple of brave souls in the water (temp is in the low 70s) - they are probably "snow birds".

 

So, we watched the local wild life as they searched for food - sea gulls posing

and surf fishing -

 

Pelicans circling overhead, drifting on the thermal air currents

and then back to watching my husband attempt to do a little water therapy

 

and took pictures of the whipped cream clouds

 

when my husband shouted to look north -

 

at the longest trail of Pelicans I have ever seen

 

heading straight down south to Miami Beach

for lunch of course, at South Beach!
