"Begin her"? (That's what it says. Click to read the sign.) |

Miniature tide pool atop a rock. Barnacles, periwinkle snails, seaweed. |
Big barnacle mouth |
Warty rockweed |
Green stone, with barnacle scars |

I see a face. Do you? |
A community of isopods, on the underside of a stone. |
Stoney happy face. |
And the eagles flew far overhead, dodging crows.
I totally forgot it was the equinox yesterday, but as you already saw (thanks for the link on Twitter, by the way) I too was exploring the unusual low tide here on the other end of the continent. Cool photos!
ReplyDeleteCute captures!! Lovely day!
ReplyDeleteWe went last night to catch sight of the full moon overlooking White Rock. Your photos do a great job of showing the richness of the local environment, Susannah! The sea has a way of leaving the most interesting life forms behind on the shore. By the look of things, it also sculptured a rugged old face in the driftwood.:)
ReplyDeleteThanks, all!
ReplyDeleteaka Penelope,
So you saw the face. I do, too, but Laurie (who took this photo) says he saw it on the beach, but not in the photo.
Thanks for the ocean fix! =) Yup, spring is here, if only in theory...
ReplyDeleteWhat a great series of shots--all so intimate as well as cheerful!
ReplyDeletePerhaps HER is a railway acronym? Seems to be to obvious to be a typo.
ReplyDeleteClare, that makes sense. Or rather, it's obvious, now that you've explained it. :)
