Sunset on the causeway - Skywatch Friday




It hasn't rained in weeks.  Which makes for a beautiful sunset every night but the grass and trees are started to get crispy. I took the above driving home from work recently. In another 2 weeks the time changes and I'll be driving home in the dark so I'm trying to stop and get pictures at least once a week.

This blue heron was digging up some seaweed. There must have been something good in it.



There was a handful of shorebirds on the causeway.

Something in the water startled this great blue heron. Might have been a stingray.


There's always lots of skimmers flying around the causeway before dark.
