"Cape Bear Lighthouse." Worn by weather, steadied by time,
and lifting gently into the sky.

Uphill path on dune leading directly to yellow sunrise. Dune grasses on either side of the path. Sunlight gives way to pastel blue sky and a couple of wispy clouds.

Beach view with long piece of driftwood in foreground, rising from sand to the right, in shadow of recent sunrise. Sand is tan, darkened in weak light. No signs of human activity across wide view. Middle of view is blue ocean water in layers of waves also with shadows. Sky lighter blue with single horizontal cloud layer over left half of ocean.
Morning on Bear Island, a barrier island with no roads connecting it to the mainland.
📷 Open for full horizontal view.

Dutch explorers Willem Barentsz & Jacob van Heemskerck discovered Bear Island.
The name for the island was given after a polar bear was seen swimming nearby.

Vertical photo showing a sand path through low shrubs and dune grasses. The path disappears after a curve to the right, beyond id a thick patch of shrubs. At top right of the view foreground are branches of a scrubby pine. On the left appears to be the base of a tall dune, covered in grassy vegetation. A thin strip of ocean is seen just before the light blue sky at the top.
#FootpathFriday
The one trail on Bear Island, a barrier island off the coast of North Carolina.
No resorts. No extravagant homes. No shops. Just the dunes and their natural environment.

on sandy ground, two insects on a gnarled piece of driftwood. One, a large, stout bristly long fly, holds a smaller sparkling metallic blue long bee.
On remote Bear Island, NC, a Robber Fly captures a Metallic Blue Sweat Bee.
Predatory Robber Flies can catch their prey in mid-flight.
🐝 Metallic Sweat Bees, jewels of the insect world, are beneficial #NativeBees in that they are indiscriminate #pollinators […]

"Alistair MacLean takes great concepts, makes turgid novels of them and then those novels get made into mostly bad / mediocre movies that routinely have absolutely superb posters."
