You will notice that there are big jumps between picture numbers. That’s because I took a gazillion pictures during the dolphin/porpoise (can’t remember which) watch boat trip, and most shots were boring, terrible, or useless. The few that I am posting here are not all that good. I spent most of my time trying to figure out which ones were marginally acceptable.
All of this fish business reminds me of a quip I learned long ago: “Did you ever hear of the ‘Maritime Quartet?’ It’s made up of first tuna, second tuna, barracuda and bass. Sometimes they sing on porpoise, but most of the time they sing just for the halibut.”
Here we go with the rather disappointing pictures.
No faces.
Not even sure what we are seeing.
The sea birds and oil rig—if that’s what it is—overshadow the pathetic dolphin.
Ditto.
They think they are performing. “Watch me! Watch me!” If I could only
see you!
Heading back to the harbor. Hey look! A row of houses, frolicking on land!
Looking up is more rewarding sometimes.
Unlike my cohorts, the folks on this vessel are workers.
This rig was more interesting the the underwater denizens we were supposed to “watch.”
So were the shore birds.
I wonder if these are vacation homes or all-season living quarters. I suppose boats are required.
Hey! Wake up! This week’s pictures are done. Thank goodness.
