misty morning

I woke up to a misty morning. A chilly rain was predicted for later in the day.

Hmm... I wonder where I should wander. I checked the tide chart and found that low tide on Plum Island was at 11:43 AM. Perfect! I headed to the Parker River National Wildlife Refuge for a walk on the beach, arriving before low tide and continuing to walk as the tide turned. I shared the beach with just a few people and quite a few birds. The sea gulls and sanderlings had staked out their territory but were happy to share a bit of the sand with me.
