I like to stay until the light is almost totally gone, when the wind whips my hair into an intolerable, stinging, fury. Iāll leave when I have to blindly feel around for the path back up, over dark rocks, in a dangerous way. Then I will worry about breaking an ankle about cracking a jaw getting dragged out to sea, but not any earlier. Certainly not when Iām scurrying down over slippery stones to watch seagulls argue. Then, Iām only worried about missing that last sliver of sunset. . . . #westerngulls #seagulls #birds #seabirds #gulls #dusk #sunset #poem #poetry #drawing #sketch #illustration #nature #naturalist #loverspoint #pacificgrove (at Lovers Point Beach)
