Wave Foam on Isla Verde Beach

I went down to the beach to chase what seemed to be some type of heron.

At first glance, I could not find him, so then I decided to take a few pictures of the foam of the waves at an angle.

Minutes later I was able to get closer to what I learned that day to be an American Oyster Catcher.

Mother Nature Close to Major San Juan Hotels

One of the advantages of staying on Isla Verde Beach in Carolina Puerto Rico is that you get to be up and close to nature. From Dolphins rarely visiting to once a year seeing a few Leatherback Sea Turtle Nests Hatch.
