Fishing with Rocco

22 Aug

Ahhh……To me there is nothing more relaxing or satisfying than a day or even an afternoon that is filled with photo opportunities and water activities.   To live near the ocean and its tributaries is truly wonderful.   Yesterday my son Rocco came along with us.   What a treat to have him with me!   We were in the Lynnhaven river of Virginia Beach and there is always an abundance of wildlife along the waters edge or hanging out in the trees.  It was a bit cloudy but the perfect temperature for a great day of fishing.   We caught bait in the cast net to fish for puppy drum.  The fish were small but fun to catch and not to worry because we released them all.  As much as humans love to fish, birds love to fish as well which makes for a photographers dream.  Birds were dipping and diving towards their catch and some of them even decided that our bait would be tasty.  My photos on today’s blog are just a sampling of some of the birds and wildlife that we saw on our trip.

Job 12:7-10  But ask the animals, and they will teach you, or the birds in the sky, and they will tell you;  or speak to the earth, and it will teach you,  or let the fish in the sea inform you.  Which of all these does not know that the hand of the Lord has done this?   In his hand is the life of every creature and the breath of all mankind.
