I'm sitting and watching birds. I'm at Blue Moon Beach. I think it is the best beach in the world. The water is warm and blue. The sand is very white.
Blue Moon Beach is my beach. I've lived here all my life. Other people come here for a week or two. They swim at the beach. They come to see the fish too.
There are many fish in the water at Blue Moon Beach. My name is Samuel Martin. At home I am called Sammy. At school I am Sam. I like the name Sam.
I think I'm too old to be Sammy. Now I am 15. I live with my mother and father in our hotel. Blue Moon hotel. Blue Moon hotel.
When I was little, I loved all the rooms and the stairs. I loved the big kitchen and all the food. I liked the people who came to stay. I played with lots of children who came with their families. What I like now are the animals and birds that live near our hotel.
I like the sea eagles best. I want to write a book about them one day. They are big, strong birds. Sea eagles are the kings of all the birds. They fly over the water to look for food.
When I was little, there were lots of sea eagles at Blue Moon Beach. This year there are only two sea eagles. Why? Because there are not many trees now. Sea eagles need trees now.
Sea eagles need trees now. There are lots of houses. It makes me angry. I don't want the birds to leave Blue Moon Beach. Today is the first day of summer.
No school for five weeks. Five weeks to swim and watch the sea eagles. I'm lying on the sand. I'm watching one sea eagle. It is on the rocks at the end of the beach.
I haven't seen the other sea eagle today. Two men are walking along the beach. I don't think they are here to swim. They are wearing dark clothes. They are wearing shoes and socks.
People never wear shoes and socks at Blue Moon Beach. The men stop near me. They look at the rocks. They must be looking at the sea eagle. They talk quietly.
Who are they? They see me looking at them and then they walk away. I go for a swim. I love swimming. There are a lot of people in the water today, but not many of them swim out in the deep water.
I swim out a long way. There are a lot of fish swimming below me. I lie in the water and look up. I see the sea eagle flying above me. I love being out in the water at Blue Moon Beach.
The sun is high in the sky. It's time for lunch and I'm hungry. I swim back to the beach and then I walk back to the hotel. Sammy mum calls from her office. It is at the front of the hotel.
Yes, Mum. I say, dad needs your help in the kitchen after lunch, she says. She says today. But it's the first day of summer. Mum, I want to go swimming again this afternoon.
And the birds. I want to go swimming too, says Mum. But we all have to work. We have a lot of visitors. She looks tired.
She works very hard. Okay? Mom smiles at me. Thank you, sammy, she says. Sam.
Mom, not Sammy. Not a little boy now. I'm 15. Okay, Sam. Go and eat lunch then help your father.
I go into the kitchen. Dad is cooking. I think he is the best cook in the world. He uses lots of pots. I'll have to wash them after lunch.
