Some Random Pictures from Jekyll Island

September 12, 2025 There are a lot of deer on Jekyll Island. While sometimes seen during the daylight hours, the deer are mostly seen after dark. On the side of my father-in-law’s house, Bruce and I discovered a beautiful shimmering spider web. A lovely Golden Silk Orb-weaver had set up shop.

More Salt Marsh Pictures

September 11, 2025 This was taken from the M. E. Thompson Memorial Bridge as we headed into Brunswick. Jekyll Island is on the right of Jekyll Creek. I managed to take some pictures of the salt marshes from the Sidney Lanier Bridge as Bruce was driving over it. Once over the Sidney Lanier Bridge, I […]

A Short Walk Through the Live Oaks on Jekyll Island

September 11, 2025 I had hoped to buy a sea glass ball from the shops in the Historic District on Jekyll Island. The shops didn’t have any sea glass balls that I wanted. The walk underneath the live oaks was worth going to the Historic District.

Beach Scenes From Jekyll Island

September 11, 2025 I love walking along the beach at Jekyll Island. There were Gulf Fritillary butterflies on flowers growing on the dunes. (The Donald Fagen song “On the Dunes” just started playing in my head.) The pelicans flew in formation on their way home for the evening. As we walked down the beach, we […]

Nox Doing Nox Things

Watching Birds on the Beach

September 8, 2025 On September 1 (Monday), we took advantage of the beautiful day to walk down to the beach on Jekyll Island, Georgia. There was a bit of debris on the beach from the previous day’s storm. The beach was full of identifying these cute little Sanderlings probing the sand. The waves were still […]

Windy Beach Visit

September 8, 2025 On August 31 (Sunday), we took a sunset walk on the beach. The beach on Jekyll Island faces east, so the sunset is over the island. There was reflected color to the north, making for beautiful beach pictures. It was very windy on the beach. The pictures of the pelicans are grainy […]

Walking Down Newcastle Street in Brunswick, Georgia

September 8, 2025 On August 30 (Saturday), Bruce drove my father-in-law to church. Once we made sure he was safely inside, Bruce drove a little ways down Newcastle Street and parked. I had wanted to see some of the historic downtown of Brunswick. We walked along the wide sidewalks on Newcastle Street. Several small parks […]
