Tales from the Lagoon ~ Episode - Relaxing Weekend at the Lagoon

The dolphins used the little lagoon like a convenience store, just running in, grabbing a few fish and cuddles and leaving over the weekend.

There was an impromptu fish fiesta Friday afternoon but it only lasted 10 minutes.

The winter brings an abundance of birds to the lagoon. Just this weekend, at least 50 cormorants, half dozen osprey, juvenile bald eagles, blue herons, egrets and of course the pelicans. Loads of vultures are loving the thermals, gliding around for hours.

I’ve only seen an osprey land near the beach a few times, so it’s always exciting. Today for the first time, I watched an ibis walk by an osprey. Not something you see everyday.

Stay tuned for more tales!
