Daily I am finding (or not finding) the names of birds I have never seen before. And a lot of the local cast will be heading north for the summer in The States and Canada. Then I will have a better idea which birds live here all year -- just like me.<br /><br />By the way, a huge croc showed up in the inlet this morning. As big as a Buick. I noticed it was there because of the splashing. It had killed something. I am staying away from the shore for the rest of the day.Steve Cottonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2289482511228853984.post-30614961620171805132011-04-10T10:28:14.304-05:002011-04-10T10:28:14.304-05:00It's nice to know you are leaving the laguna i...It's nice to know you are leaving the <i>laguna</i> in better shape than you found it.
