The Fifth Bird...

...the smallest one down on the right, just above the horizon line...I think you may have to zoom in to believe it, but that's a windsurfer. And we are in the middle of a crazy storm. Walking out there for about a half hour was like skiing in a wild blizzard--rain pelting your face, wind almost making you fly--super fun!! And then there was the windsurfer, here in the bay where I've never seen anyone do this before. I regret missing a shot of him completely  airborne, doing a somersault, but my jaw was hanging too far down for me to focus. Oh, and it was raining too hard to use anything but my phone. This guy was amazing! Flipping and skimming and zipping along--pretty soon he'd rounded the wharf and disappeared from view. See Extra. We were soaked, and I've never had so much fun in a rainstorm.

The rest of the day was on again off again, switching from pelting rain to a random bit of sun. I read by the fire for awhile, and then made another batch of feijoa chutney.
