So, was down at the newly reopened cove park by the ferry dock at sunset Fri. night and up strolled Sam and his girls. The girls used to hang mostly here before the construction and it appears they’re back.
Sam looked quite intrigued and was staring me down while the girls had a pre-bed snack. The heron was completely at ease as he/she wandered by and flew up under the dock.
All is well in the Cove again. :-)
