Hello friends!
Happy " #aliveandthriving Tuesday evening" To You!
βœ¨πŸ™‹πŸ»β€β™€οΈβœ¨
And, Thank You so much for your visit!

So friends, I had a lot of errands this a.m..
And this is the Sunrise that got the day started!

After Spinning my wheels somewhat so to speak, I did fix "something" on the truck - which is a good thing!
After that and lunch I wanted to put some miles in the Green bike so I headed over to the Park.
This is a view of the "sludge" coming up out of the Gulf (of Mexico), and... What's that on the corner?

Looks like some people are either camping out, or hiding from the Sun. I decided to leave them alone and move on,

And here I caught the "Black Necked Stilts"!
Here they are just eating, somewhat oblivious to each other,

The one sees me and runs over to the other one,

Then since I am no threat they started eating together,

And here as well, and this is the best photo I got of them and it's "enlarged". They don't let you get close...

After I moved on, a Seagull flew overhead,

And headed out towards Padre Island,

On the Pier was two fishermen,

I am sure that they are not having much luck!

And before I left a quick view over to Padre Island,

And a look towards Mustang Island as well,

And then I headed home, not much going on and I was "supposed" to do something - but that never happened.

And that was my #aliveandthriving Tuesday! I want to thank you again for your visit and,
I am Wishing you a Very Blessed, Happy, and Safe, Mid-Week!
