Too Much Water


There's a small marshy area on the north side of the island. When it rains a lot it fills up and overflows onto the beach. This temporarily creates a neat stream on an island with no streams or rivers. It's a lot of fun to go down to the north beach and watch the water run out of the marsh. Yesterday morning this cut in the sand wasn't there. Come summer when the water level stays down, the tide will bring all the sand back and fill it all in and you won't even be able to see where this stream was.

  1. Nature is clever isn't it Margaret. Couldn't help catching a glimpse of that toast in the previous post - looks so good on this cold sleety afternoon.
