The morning we first arrived found a great egret calmly walking along the surf's edge.

A cow with large droopy ears, whose number ended in 33, looked directly into the camera's lens.

Newly hatched sea turles swam in the shallow water of an old horizonal freezer with the lid taken off and the interior drain plugged.

Down the beach, about a dozen meters north of the surf area, we found this sea turtle hatchery.

An osprey was soaring around that afternoon and, after a while, flew directly over the camera.

A sand-colored crab emerged from a hole in the sand. Its coloration doubtless aided it in blending in with the sand's surface.

A bright green grasshopper with long antennae landed on a man's pant leg. It turned toward the camera and remained still for just long enough for its photograph to be taken.

On the second morning, a small flock of turkeys wandered the side of the roadway that led into the beach.
