Jon Crispin's Notebook

Yesterday was cold.  Freezing rain and very windy.  We still went to the beach, but our walk was brief.  Today was just grey and cold, so walking was no problem.  We saw zero people but lots of bird action.  Pelicans, gulls, ducks,  sandpipers, and piping plovers.  These starfish must not taste very good to the gulls, as there were lots of them laying around un-eaten.  Cris noticed the guy above.

There is something about the subtlety of the colors of the shells that attracts my attention.  How beautiful is this one?
