SCENE in the pen. 040

“small gobies”

The beach was at low tide. I walked along the rocky shore, paying attention to my feet. I crouched down and looked into the tide pool. It was many small gobies that move quickly. When the tide rises, they will return to the sea again.  [JULY 2021]

 

干潮時、磯を歩くと、潮だまりができています。足元に気を付けて覗き込むと、小さなハゼの仲間が泳いでいました。潮が満ちてくるとふたたび海に戻ります。
