Have ocean eyes,

good for seeing,

in the murky depths.

Catching critters,

as they swim away.

Except for Squirrely,

who doesn’t even let his feet get wet.

Cheers to you from La Jolla’s sea creatures.

Critters in order are: Brandt’s Cormorant, Black Oystercatcher, Heerman’s Gull and California Ground Squirrel.

  15. As a wise person once said, “Wherever you look, there shall be a squirrel.”

    Thanks for sharing your photos, Cindy! The blue eyes of the cormorant are mesmerizing!

    PS – I love that you use a tilde (~) in your text; I’m a super fan, but rarely see others use it. I’ve always love that it has the shape of a wave and the sense of the wind in it.

    1. Yes. You are the first to comment. Surprising. Thank you! First of all, I love the tilde because it messes with grammar and punctuation, secondly I love that it has varied meaning; logic, negation, sort of or approximately. Third, like you, I love the way it looks~ Lovely to meet you Linda 🐦‍⬛

  24. I didn’t know about any of these creatures. And those squirrels look a bit different than ours. These birds’ eyes are so gorgeous!

  29. Lovely birdies! I saw an Eastern BlueBird on its way somewhere in March. This morning I saw a ‘Flying Checkerboard’ – a Red-headed Wood pecker with white and black checkered wings!!

    And I may have three of the four of my birdie houses with small nesting birds 🙂

  33. S’il est un blog que j’adore au-delâ de tous, c’est celui-ci.
    Il condense tout ce que l’inspiration artistique sait exprimer.
    À l’image juste, répond une autre prise de vue, en un captivant ballet d’oiseaux marins effleurant les flots

  36. We were just in the area in March. We were in San Diego for a few days and took a drive to see the Sea Lions. They’re so awesome. You might know, I lived at a lake for a long time. We had Pelicans in the summer come to fish and eat (they actually nested at a different lake). But the Cormorants where like their groupies. Where ever the Peli’s were, the Cormarants came with. They’re cool looking hey?
