On one of our trips to Lake Erie, we stopped by the Port Clinton Lighthouse.
We walked along the beach and searched for lake glass,
then sat on a bench and watched the waves.
We were preparing to leave when I turned and
looked toward the two ponds that sit in front of the lighthouse.
A speck of white caught my attention.
As I moved closer to the water, an egret stood.
What a beauty. I am partial to these remarkable birds, with their graceful movements.
As with any of God's creation, I love to watch them and learn their ways.
Fun fact: they build their stick nests near the water, but high in the trees.
Fortunately, this bird was photogenic!
