Howdee all,
I am interrupting my search for the Marbled Godwit post to exclaim…
We are in Sanibel!
Land of shells and birds.
Jeff and I took a late afternoon beach walk.
It was windy and chilly on the beach.
Bonaparte's Gull
Black skimmer and Sandwich tern
I cant wait to explore more.
Hang out with the birds and shells
Cant get much better than Birds and Shells…
Walking on the beach..
I will be looking for some treasures..
Sicksta Lori said I need to look for Junonia shells.
Here is a link to some other shells I will be looking for.
I need to research where the best shells are and when to find them.
Oh look….
Ibis fishing the surf..
I watched them….wondering what they were eating..
It looks like it has a sand shrimp….
I am sorry if you are bored of Ibis..
Because this is not the last photo..
We had a great walk…we are only a half a mile walk to the beach from where we are staying.
We are also a half mile walk to Ding Darling NWR..
More to explore!
And this is the last Ibis~for today ..

That's pretty rough surf for the gulf. It was as calm as could be when we were there years ago. The ibis are cool birds
I am loving your posts from Florida. I really want to be there. Love your ibis photos! :-)
Great shots from a great walk on the beach. I'd be in trouble with all those shells for the taking.
Ahhh, I love Sanibel Island. Thanks for the walk down memory lane. It reminds me I have to get back there one of these days.
hi dawnie. love the skimmers. they rock.
I asked what sort of Ibis they were but did not look hard enough. they are white ibis. we have the ugliest ibis in oz.
cheers,
steve
What a wonderful spot. Super photos and I admit to a bit of jealousy, all that sun and those birds. Enjoy it guys.
Looks glorious! I could spend the entire day on that beautiful beach. Hope you find some pretty shells. I know the Sanibel beaches are known for all the gorgeous treasures that wash up on shore.
the ibis at Sanibel when I was there were eating sand fleas... and in one of your photos I am pretty sure that the ibis was also eating a sand flea...
