小学三年级·弗吉尼亚州阿萨蒂格岛(Assateague Island, VA)
2012-05-27
也许源于家有小儿初长成,我们一向对堡礁地理风貌情有独钟,凡是涉及到生物圈保护区、海洋自然保护区、珊瑚生态保护区,都在我们的严密关注之下。
曾几何时,全家老少不辞辛苦,从墨西哥“听他们说话”半岛顶端的螺旋岛(Isla Contoy in Yucatán)横扫洪都拉斯海湾群岛省附近号称世界第二大堡礁群──中美洲珊瑚礁,甚至连远在天涯海角世界最绝最长的澳大利亚大堡礁一刻也未从我们旅游雷达上消失。这次恰逢朋友倡议出游美东堤礁──激流岛 ,我们喜出望外,自然一拍即合,真巴不得立刻插翅飞去。
阿萨蒂格 “激流”岛位于 特拉华 “好斗者”州(Delaware)— 马里兰 “心爱”州(Maryland)— 弗吉尼亚 “圣洁王后”州(Virginia)半岛(Delmarva Peninsula)对岸,跟我们客居寄宿的水边美景 岛紧密相邻。美国作家珍珠•领主(Marguerite Henry)曾以当地故事题材为背景,撰写了的一部名叫《水边美景 岛的迷雾》(Misty of Chincoteague)少儿小说,从而使激流 岛名声大噪。300多年前17世纪后期,传说西班牙矮种野马因西班帆船失事而流离转徙至此,以野草及海菜为食,将就恶劣的生存环境生长,造成身段矮小,因此失去了高大魁梧的优势。书中毫无羁绁的野马“幻影”及其撒欢滚打的马驹“迷雾”与哥哥保罗和妹妹莫琳不期相遇,结果给这对小兄妹的海岛生活带来了无边无际的愉悦。“幻影”秉性如风,宛若梦中幽灵;“迷雾”身着白色“美国地图”,象征自由奔放。他们一起参加一年一度的水边美景岛 野马过渠(Pony Swim),一起竞技涉水赛马会,差一点在围马节投标拍卖,别移他家。
如今,野马奔腾的60公里/37英哩银白色沙滩已先后开辟成为著名的激流岛 国家海滨和激流岛 马里兰州立公园;主人公捉螃蟹、采牡蛎、挖蛤蜊、拾海螺、捡贝壳的汤姆海湾恰是昨个儿我们赶海的水边美景国家野生动物保护区。
一片天空一缕风。我们依次沿着公园内三条以“生命”为主题的通幽曲径浏览当地的植被环境,深为大自然的神奇壮观而折服。潺湲溪流的“沼泽之乡”被细密芦苇覆盖得郁郁葱葱;到处彰显边缘效应的“森林之灵”集中反映了生存复杂性和生态多样化;任海风一手打造的“沙丘之奇”呈盾状新月形怪姿异态,毫不客气地将大西洋挡在埂脊之外。
“麦苗鬖马鬃,高低迭青翠”。从海湾背洋一侧通往大西洋临水一方的交通要道上,我们终于遇到一家七口拖儿带女四处觅食的水边美景岛 马群。经年栖息在这里的马驹不仅继承了先辈们锐利的感官、机警的反应、敏捷的奔跑和忍饥耐渴的能力,而且血气方刚悍野骄矜的本性很快就在我们面前暴露得淋沥尽致。九岁不知道天高地厚马凶的童少一路上光顾着东张西望看光景,哪曾想到要给迎面踱着四方碎步大摇大摆的花斑马驹让路,无意间怠慢并惹激了其中一位初生牛犊,结果它强追了童少几步,好生给挡道者来了一个下马威,吏民竦息以告天下,吓得紧随其后的公园管理员赶忙跑上来不住地关候道歉,并好心提醒我们务必要与野马保持至少一个校车的距离!
见识过马驹野性示威之后,我们安心地躺在海边上曝晒起日光浴来,间或放飞风筝,调剂一下情绪;间或用沙子搭建城堡天堑壕沟,重温儿时旧梦;间或冲入大西洋披波斩风,欲与海浪试比高。最终,我们索性漫步于细软沙滩上,与亲朋好友一起追逐夕阳倒映下的浪花海鸟将近两个钟头,不似人间,胜似人间。
【注】每年七月底最后一个星期三为野马过渠,次日星期四为围马节。通常旅馆酒店要提前一年定好。
