Foundation Skills at Weedon Island - March 24, 2010

It was a beautiful day for a class. We taught and practiced as we traversed Weedon Island.

On our first venture foreword we saw this yellow-crowned night heron.

Before long we spotted another. At least some of us spotted it.

I think Wes was blinded by the reflection off his white kayak and couldn't see it.

After paddling awhile through the mangrove tunnels, we came to nice pond. After some more lessons and practice, Marty stopped to do a whole bunch of finger exercises with her hatch cover. During which time Wes decided to do biceps curls with her camel back. (I think Marty's exercise was doing more good than Wes's.) Here's Jeff going straight for a change. More practice . . . And even more. And, while surreptitiously sneaking up on a pair of oyster catchers, they taught me spelling was not the only challenge I had with that word.
