My alive and thriving Sunday afternoon!

Happy #aliveandthriving Sunday afternoon/evening to you, and thank you for your visit!
This afternoon I took a short 5 mile / 8.04 kilometer bike ride and while I was out I took a few photos I would like to share with you this evening.
So I started at the Park and caught the Seagull on the Pole photo of the day,

And looking past the Pole I noticed something a bit different, and yes the tides are very low!

Looking a little closer I noticed that beyond the little girl it appears a dad and son are trading off fishing poles and nets,


And indeed they are and you can see how low the tide is - not even knee deep! Also, I am not sure but in most areas here they are against "nets". It takes away from the birds and smaller fish.
Well I didn't want to seem to stare at them so I left and rode down the Channel to the Lower Breeding Pond. It is almost completely gone!

That's pretty amazing!
I left there and rode around a bit and headed up the Channel again. On the way I passed this Sunflower with a few flies on it,

A closer view,

Google is calling them fruit flies, so I will agree!
Then I rode about a half mile inland and passed "Dock Side Surfshop" - which is where they get all the Kite Surfer gear. Outside the Hibiscus was blooming so I took a few photos. This one the wind got in the way,

And this is another flower, and better photo!

And the Oleander was blooming as well! These are a little different variety then the others I have seen. This is a branch,

And a little closer view of some flowers,

After that I rode home - I was warm enough!
And that was a few photos from my #aliveandthriving Sunday afternoon!
I want to thank you again for your visit and I am Wishing you a Very Blessed, Happy, and Safe New-Week!

STOPYour Sunday activities sound lovely! Enjoyed your photos too esp. of the many beautiful flowers you shared. Now I miss Mom's hibiscus plant. Your low tide there is fascinating. Imagine even the lower breeding pond is almost gone. Is that quite usual at this time of the year for you? Do have a fantastic week ahead.
