The Other Night...

It was getting dark, so Gerard and I took the dogs to the waters edge. Gerard was tired so he and Sassy went back to the house, while Milly and I went on further. We got to the first jetty and decided to have a sit down. It was a warm night, now dark, could see the red beaks only of the swans in the distance. Could hear some swans far in the distance crying out and a bird on the island squawking. The moon was leaving a silver shimmer on the water it was just a perfect night to be out. I could hear another sound and wondered what could be in the water and then it dawned on me it was similar to the sound when I was in the kayak out near the island and the dolphins were swimming near us. And sure enough that was it, I could not see them but could hear them breaking the water coming up for air and then going back down in the water again. Simply amazing....
