Beach Day 4

Ed wasn't happy with his photos of the Black Skimmers with the small lens so we drove back to Galveston with the "big" lens in hopes that the Skimmers would be at the some spot. Happily they were. While Ed was snapping photos of the Skimmers as they suddenly took off, I was watching the reason they took off. An Osprey had flown over them. The Osprey dove, caught a fish and took off again --- it was amazing to watch.

Yes, Zaph got his beach walk when we came back from photographing the birds.

I'm not sure of the proper name but I'll call it a "kite car". The vehicle ran up and down the beach powered by the kite.
