Venice Jetty




Today was another gorgeous day and we headed to the jetty. Since it isn’t a usual spot for us, I took the camera and managed some shots that really appealed to me. The weather was wonderful after a few days of cool temperatures – sunny and 80 degrees.

Looking at Venice Beach and the condos/apartments that are at that end of Venice Avenue.

This Snowy Egret was almost tame – he didn’t move a feather as I approached him.

There were lots of boats coming back in from the Gulf as it was 4 PM.

This guy is an Anhinga (nicknamed a snakebird). His feathers are not water repellant so he needs to dry off in the sun and breeze. He was just spreading his wings and standing there for the longest time before he headed into the water again.
