Feeding Frenzy

Filed under: — jbm @ 9:13 pm

This post is for last Thursday, 6/3. Another very smooth day. More jetskis this time, but I’m noticing they don’t actually affect me that much (except for the noise). The wake they generate is pretty shallow, compared to some of the larger, fast-moving boats. There was a fairly big party at the Heron Cove beach.

Water is shallower still, so the further North you get on Boyd, the less you see of motorboats. I suspect they don’t want to get stuff caught in their props, there are lots of reeds and things sticking up as soon as you get shallower than three feet or so.

Lots of fish leaping into the air today feeding on surface bugs, I presume. Herons circle up high, then swoop down to within a foot of the water and then stay that high as they cruise over the surface. I wonder if they’re “having fun” doing that.
