From 9-21 May we got to enjoy the beautiful sugar-sand beaches at Panama City Beach, FL. The weather started cold and rainy and remained a bit cool for part of the first week. We did our usual walking up and down the beach, sometimes wearing long sleeves.
One of the things we saw for the first time ever was shallow water prowling by eagle rays. These are beautiful sting rays with jet-black tops and pure white bottoms. They are about 22-26 inches wide, wingtip to wingtip. They cruise the shallows in groups from one to a dozen and do not seem overly fearful of human waders and swimmers. Sometimes they seem to be playfully "body-surfing" the breakers.
They are bountiful. They are beautiful. They are just another part of G^d's terrific, amazing creation.
Thank you L^rd!
