Another slightly odd picture I dug up as I clean out the archives in readiness for the 2006 cards and calendars...

John - the fellow catches small fish called 'whiting' off the beach and feeds them to the pelican he affectionately calls "Peter". Why you'd name a female 'Peter' is another matter! Years before these two met, I owned a motel in the area and the bird would walk up to beach fishermen and lean against them until they fed it... Such is the life of these smelly creatures. They constantly weep oil onto their feathers in order to remain waterproof. The oil smells really strange.

I was fishing in the outlet of a pond a few years ago, and I caught a small largemouth bass, about 11". As I was holding the fish in front of my face to remove the hook, a Great Blue Heron flew right up in my face and tried to take the fish from me. It scared the hell out of me; it came out of nowhere, and then all of a sudden, a 6 foot wingspan flapping right in front of me. If I had to do it all over again, I would have my DSLR and 10mm lens with me.

Hot damn -- I might just take up fishing. Though maybe the GBH was habituated to people. >J...@no.komm wrote: > [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] >Hot damn -- I might just take up fishing. Though maybe the GBH was >habituated to people. Probably, but that did not occur to me at the time. I've seen the habituation lately with Snapping Turtles. I was walking around a small man-made pond (the type with a slate walk, and deep water at the edges) last week, taking photographs of an Egret, and I noticed that snappers were swimming towards me from all over the pond. The biggest one went under, and surfaced right below my feet, looking like a dog, begging for table scraps. The others kept back a little, but still watched me. I certainly hope no one sits at the edge of this pond and cools their feet off in it.
