The Birds! The Birds!

My wife and I took out one of the jet skis and ran around Poquoson and New Point Comfort Light this morning before the wind picked up. We only had a couple of hours because of some afternoon plans but we still managed to cover almost thirty miles and see a lot. Here are a couple of pictures from our three hour tour.
