Monday morning (8/11/14) my son Daren, our friend Young Dave, and I took advantage of the super moon's super low tide to walk the beach south from the Marina Park off leash dog park below Pt. Edwards toward Pt. Wells. We saw no eagles, but a kingfisher and some purple martins put on a good show.

Some martin houses have been hung on the pilings where the Pt. Wells eagles often perch when they are in town.

The male was pretty feisty as it chased a kingfisher which passed overhead.

A kingfisher provided entertainment as it made several dives for fish near us.

The kingfisher came up with something not suitable for lunch.

It passed by me and flew over to the bluff on the other side of the railroad tracks.

After the beach we went to the fishing pier where there was more kingfisher action.

One posed on the salmon sculptor, my favorite spot to photograph them.

At least three were flying around the marina. These are probably the same ones we have seen at the nearby marsh.
