Sunday Bridge Series: MLK Shoreline Park

This shoreline near the airport demonstrates the curative powers of a restored marshland.  It is a beautiful place to walk or have a picnic.  This walkway allows you a close-up look at the marsh ecology.  Quiet despite the nearby freeway, the nesting terns and ground squirrels couldn't be happier.  For views of other bridges, visit «Louis'» meme Sunday Bridge Series.

    Doesn't it get a bit noisy if the airport is nearby? Apart from that, it does look like a wonderful haven!

    The subject matter is beautiful, but the lighting is spectacular in this shot.

    That's a cool shot with the hills in the background. Sort of gives a sense of the primitive land before urban development.

    this is such a beautiful scene. I hope this inspires many similar places to be restored in the same way.
