Eagle Ray in Newport Shores

This past weekend was finally the reprieve from the continued the Southern California storms that we had here all last week. However, many areas were (and probably still are) feeling the effects of the storms.

Ray in the Newport Shores Canal

Newport Shores in Newport Beach is surrounded by a Canal which is fed by the tide. As a result of the storms, the water became very murky. On Sunday, we were looking out over the Canal and noticed something swimming in the water.

At first, we thought it was a shark. Then as we were watching, it was a  sting ray  of some type. Then after taking a number of photos, It may have been some type of  eagle ray  as the head was different than a sting ray. The Ray was at least three feet across, so it was fairly good size.

It was sad to watch it swimming around the Canal in Newport Shores because of the run off from the rain, the water was not at all clear. We were concerned it could not navigate through such murky water. I am hoping he made it  back out to the ocean safely where he belongs.

It was enjoyable seeing this beautiful creature in the Newport Shores Canal in Newport Beach.

We have seen a lot of different wild life here including swans, geese, a seal, sand sharks, and all types of fish.
