While visiting Great Point, we were greatly honored to encounter several birds and seals. Greater black backed gulls flew over the breaking waves, as we observed signs in the sediment showing nemo’s swells and wrack-lines. Our “tour guide” Mr. Young pointed out several areas where he noted historic water flow and sections of barrier dunes that were washed away. Eider ducks gathered in the sun’s warmth, bobbing and onlooking as we drove along the beach. The seals lay in their herd, absorbing the warmth on the sandy banks. Some of them swam playfully in the surf, as curious pups explored the dunes.
