St George Island, Florida.. Skywatch Friday

Howdee all,

This skywatch post features a series of photos from a morning on St. George Island in the panhandle of Florida.
This was just a few weeks ago...the temps had been cold every morning the week we stayed there. This was our last day so we set out early to go bird watching. The air was still. As we walked we realized how warm it was and started peeling off our layers.
It was a gorgeous. As you can see the clouds were amazing.

I had a hard time eliminating photos from this series...Sorry...so I subject you to some that are similar...but I love them.
We started our walk on the Gulf side of the Island.

Then walked to the bay side.
It was low tide and we were looking for shorebirds. The water was like glass.
This below is a view looking north and east.

if you look closely you can see some shorebirds.
This view below is looking west and a bit north.

I now look south and the sun peeks through


Looking west again ..The clouds were moving quickly and the ones that were to the north were now over the island.
strange formations over the island
a closer look at the formationsThe clouds were changing rapidly...I turn back to the East and take this shot.

the wind starts to pick up...you can see the rippling in the water.

The clouds come over us from the north west...if you look closely the wind is starting to blow the water over the mud flats. It was getting cold and very windy...
The mud flats were getting covered with water...
It was time to go...We were leaving the island for our next adventure.

Goodbye St. George Island...You gave us a nice parting gift!
