Day 285 - a Year by the Sea

The bright October sun hits the water at an angle and the camera sees rubies and diamonds as well as ducks. Your eyes just see glare. It has been a jewel of a day. The air is clear and clean. There is a brisk breeze. The ducks are more numerous as some of them will overwinter here at Belle Isle. Another unusual sight today were two people fly fishing in one of the bigger drainage channels by Rosie’s Pond. It was mesmerizing to watch the lines snake through the air catching the light as they cast. I wonder what they were trying to catch. The heron gang is still here. The five Great Blue Herons were sitting at the edge of the grass by the creek. It looked to be a great place to be catching your afternoon siesta. Which reminds me!

Ciao!
