Baby skimmers growing up









The baby black skimmer colony on Redington Shores beach is growing up. They'll all be gone in another month or two. There were only a few that were still small. The rest looked like the one above, almost grown up. It's so funny to watch them dig a little hole and lay down to sleep in the hole. They seem to do well on this busy little beach. Hopefully, they'll be back next year.
