Sunset Kayak



Just another gorgeous summer day in the Georgia marshes. My mom and I drove down to Melon Bluff to meet a friend for a sunset kayak and what a sunset kayak it turned out to be. We started off against the quickly rising tide and past hundred year old live oak trees covered in draping spanish moss hanging precariously out over the creek. A few bare limbs served as roost for huge wood storks, ibis, comorants, and a lone roseatte spoonbill. Little birds and marsh hens fluttered out from the marsh grass when we glided by and a kingfisher darted past us at one point.
The high tide allowed us to paddle up to secret spot in among the trees which is where I took the black and white picture from. Then as we circled back thru the finger creeks we were treated with a spectacular sunset. I hope these marshes never change.
