Happy Thankful Thursday!
Today is my son's 25th birthday, Happy Birthday Brian. I am sharing some more images from our weeks visit to Sunset Beach. We walked on the beach every day, seeing birds, dolphins and a beautiful sunset. I hope you enjoy my photos, who doesn't enjoy the beach.
A group of Brown Pelicans flying over the Atlantic Ocean.
The Northern Gannet looks like a gull, they are mostly white and have black wing tips. They dive head first into the ocean for their meals.
It is not often I see Bald Eagles on the beach but here they are, I think the Mrs is telling the Mr to go after her dinner.
A few Semipalmated Plovers on Sunset Beach.
We were always looking for shells and sand dollars. We found this live Sand Dollar mixed in some sea weed on the beach. We put it back down in the surf after taking a few photos. You can tell it was alive with the dark color and fuzzy hairs or feet.
Sunset @ Sunset Beach North Carolina. The beach had a lot of Sanderlings and Plovers.
The sunset on Sunset Beach.. I do not know of many places on the Atlantic Ocean you can see a beautiful sunset, this is the place.
I am thankful for my hubby, son and my family.
I was thankful to stay a week at my sister's home while she and my BIL went to Bermuda.
I am always thankful for your visits and your comments.
Thank you Michelle for hosting. Thankful Thursday

Pelicans and bald eagles, what a wonderful bird life.....
Beautiful sunset too and last but not least congratulations with your son´s birthday.

Great shots of the pelicans and the eagle birds!
Both pictures with the sunset are so beautiful and magical!

Dimi...
Wow! Beautiful sunsets photos, Eileen! Definitely the place to be for sunsets!
I had to laugh at your comments about Mr and Mrs Bald Eagle - he must be so 'hen' pecked!
Have a happy day!
Being on the water generates great, primitive emotions.
nice shots
Hello,Eileen,
Such beautiful photos! As always. Your sunset beach is special.
Happy birthday to your son. You have a beautiful family.
Enjoy your day.
Sunset reflecting on the water is perfect!
Your knowledge of birds always amazes me. You certainly got some good shots at the beach and Oh how I love that sunset.
Beautiful photos... looks like MRS. Eagle had quite a bit to say. LOL
Marvellous shots. Love that first one!
Goodness, those bald eagles are fabulous. And the sunsets are amazing.
Nice photos! I like the one of the two eagles and the sand dollar is so pretty.
I would have never known the difference between a sand dollar that was living and one that wasn't. Thanks for that. And for the beautiful sunsets.
Thank you so much for the lovely photos. They bring me back to the natural world when I get all upset and focused on the national nightmare. Thank you.
Happy Birthday Brian! Loved the eagles having a conversation...and that sunset on Sunset Beach! Gorgeous photos.
Beautiful shots of birds and also sunset.
The eagles are great!
Have a nice rest of week!
Your photos of the sand dollars are so impressive! I have never seen a live one before, but I love them as pendants and on jewelry. I believe you've got it right about Mrs Bald Eagle! That is such a cute picture! The waters below the flying gulls look so dark blue, and wonderful sunset colors! Happy Birthday to your son, Eileen! Have a very nice weekend!
Olá Eileen,
Magníficas fotos, mas as do pôr do sol são fantásticas!
Abraços.
Ailime
I love the eagles walking along the beach, Eileen!
That last sunset is beautiful.
Great shot of the eagles on the beach.
sounds like a fun housesitting gig. and I love those bickering eagles... to funny.
Great sky shot?
A lot of lovely images. I love the 2 eagles on the sand. Beautiful capture.
Wonderful photos
Bald eagles on the beach!!! I’ve never seems that! It looks like a beautiful week on the beach!
Happy Birthday Brian..Is that Sunset Beach at Cape May Point?? Beautiful sunsets..Nice sand dollars..Always like to see the eagles..Have a good evening
Those sand dollars are still alive?
Worth a Thousand Words
I agree who doesn't love beach? All the pictures are nice but the last two are absolutely mind-boggling. They are superbly captured, especially the color and the clouds. Happy Birthday to your son.
Your beach photos are stunning. Truly! I like seeing that sand dollar. So many times we all see them as dead creatures and don't see the life in them. Happy birthday to Brian and thanks for linking up today!
Gorgeous sky shots, and happy birthday to Brian!!
Love those sunset photos...they are so beautiful.
Beautiful beach photos!
the eagles are so amazing, what a wonder to see!!
your sunsets are gorgeous, nothing beats a sunset on the beach!!!

Gorgeous sunsets. Love the eagle photo. I always enjoy your beach photos because we don't have beach.
Love birds, all of them, especially Bald Eagles, superb.
I love the eagles on the beach and really love the sunsets reflected on the beach.
Beautiful as always and a happy birthday :)
Magical images Eileen. Those Bald Eagles look as though they're having quite a conversation! Have a great weekend.
There is something about a beach! Love your birds!
I imagine you're right on Mrs. Eagle!
Lovely beach for sure --- We ever saw eagles on the beach like that in a couple of places in Alaska! It really surprised me.
Wonderful photos,amaizing Eileen

Belated Happy Birthday Wishes for your son.
I loved seeing all of your photographs. I had to laugh at the Bald Eagles on the beach, they do seem to be having a conversation or argument don't they!
All the best Jan
