PORT ARANSAS - Waves at Port Aransas, Texas
Beautiful, sunny, warm December day at the beach in Texas, USA.
On the last day of our December visit to Port Aransas, I was sitting on my beach chair watching the waves when I decided to record them. I knew it would be several months before we make it back to the beach where I could see this again.
You can tell it's winter because of how low the sun angle is at 3:30 in the afternoon.
Port Aransas is near Corpus Christi.

First Birdwatching Session

I was lucky enough to join them at the Chaparral Wildlife Management Area. If you are curious about what happens during a bird watching session, check my video out.
