Calm as a pond
From wind-blown waves one day to the quiet of a pond the next, the ocean never ceases to amaze me. The waves coming ashore were no larger than the wake of a passing boat on a calm inland lake. The peaceful water made for some easy fishing for the osprey flying above, and far off shore pelicans were diving into the sea to fill their beaks and bellies with fresh fish. There must have been 30 or 40 pelicans and to see them fold their wings back and dive head first from great heights straight into the ocean is quite a sight. There must have been a run of fish just off shore. I bet those pelicans were thinking they were at an all-you-can-eat buffet. Well, I guess they were actually. Yum!
