Fanciful forms found in the sand



So whaddaya think, Bruce K.? A plover? Ha! As soon as I saw this rock in a patch of ice, I thought of you. Farther on down the beach, another ice patch had melted into (appropriately enough) something resembling the remains of a fish. Or a mermaid. It was an interesting morning of photography. More to come later on today. ©Carol Leigh

The first image looks a lot like Mono Lake from the air, reversed.

Ha! You're absolutely right! I was so wrapped up in the bird thing that I didn't see it any other way. -- Carol Leigh

Yes, it's probably the very rare Oregon Ice Plover--immature male in non-breeding plumage. Did you call the local Audubon people....LOL

Oh, Bruce, that was funny. And clever. Wish I'd thought of it. -- Carol Leigh
