Egrets, and Willets....

....and Great Blue Herons, and Sanderlings, and Herring Gulls, and Pelicans. These are just some of the shore birds I see daily -- wading in the shallows, fluttering from the tide line, searching for fish along the shore, poking their beaks into the sand, bracing against the cold north wind, or gliding just above the breaking surf.

But the dolphins are hiding, staying farther off shore, avoiding the rough surf we've been having lately. They'll be back of course.
