Avila Beach
was
in
the
national news
a
few mornings ago
a
pod
of
were
hovering
around
Avila bay
in between
and
around the piers
and causing quite
a
scene
pelicans
were
everywhere
kind of felt
like
that
eerie
Hitchcock movie
"The Birds"
fish
must
be crazy
there below the
surface
pelicans dive-bombing
seals
dolphins
and
huge
glorious
Humpback whales
slow dancing
in and out
of
the water
awesome
magnificent
so
close to
the pier
diving
in and around
fishing boats
putting on
quite
a
performance
for
all
who came
to see
….
…..
and they
slow-danced
back
out
to sea
..
and were gone
the whales
reminded
me
of a song
from
1962
sung by the Limeliters
a song
that I played
many years
later
when
Annie and Andrew
were little
I
cannot
even imagine
how
anyone could ever
kill
or even harm
those
magnificent
creatures
…just saying
Thank you, John Conner
for
all the
wonderful
photographs
