Lunch by the Water

My first social outing in a while (since Christmas, maybe?) involved meeting a couple of family members in Geelong for lunch in the western beach foreshore reserve.

Two different species of cormorant on one of the jetties.

A much larger waterbird:

I enjoyed the shade from this tree

Four of us sat at a picnic table in the park, and enjoyed our food, the conversation, and the fresh air.

The view over the water to the You Yangs. It was fantastic to go somewhere and see some different sights!
