Myrtle Beach


We have been in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina for almost 2 weeks now.  This town is little too much of a Tourist Trap for us but we found some things to do other than the usual stuff.  There is a state park on far down the road which had some birds doing what they do best "Fishing"




Tom was able to capture this Great Egret having his dinner.   


We saw these little splashes around in the water and both took several picture to try and capture what the little fish under the surface were chasing.  One of us finally got something and realized it was a shrimp being chases by the little fish under the surface.  The little guy would jump out of the water.  Sometimes he didn't make it and was fish food.




We have been having some fun with the birds in our RV park.  We have some Blue Jay's and these black birds called Starlings.  When we put our trash out to be picked up the birds usually come out and peck at the trash bag.  These two birds didn't want to share with each other.

He found himself something good and was determined not to share it with any other birds.

Other than taking pictures of birds we played golf, rode the Ferris Wheel downtown, went to Charleston to check out the history down there.  Next post will be of Brookgreen Garden, a spectacular Sculpture Garden.  I'll work on that post next.  Stay tuned.....
