Rays

Last evening, as I fished from the beach at La Ropa, I was reminded of the shuffling-feet mantra when it comes to wading in the surf. Over a span of just a couple of minutes, I barely missed stepping on: 1. a spotted sea snake (actually a type of eel, I think) and 2. a small ray. They are there and they come all the way up the beach in the wash, especially at high tide.
