The Third Coast

• Jul. 18, 2007 - Photos Around the Harbor for You

 

One of the twins caught this photo of a Peregrine falcon sitting on the mast of an Endeavour 37. It had been chasing a Least tern up and down the channel. With an incredible shriek and ensuing racket, the Peregrine caught the diminutive white tern in his razor sharp talons and disappeared around the condos, to savor his meal in private. The Least tern was now a completely-gone-tern as the falcon digested his evening meal.

 

 

I'm sure there's a few other no-no's that they've missed here. Like maybe no wake allowed? no dumping holding tanks? no dockboys allowed?

 

 

You can't see it here, but just on the other side of this enclosure are a veritable minefield of dogbombs. I guess someone doesn't like the new ordinance....

The Captains Profile:

Some men and women are born great, some achieve greatness and some slit the throats of any scalawag who stands between them and unlimited power. You never met a man - or woman - you couldn't eviscerate. You are the definitive Man of Action, the CEO of the Seven Seas, Lee Iacocca in a blousy shirt and drawstring-fly pants. You’re mission-oriented, and if anyone gets in the way, that’s his problem, now isn’t? Your buckle was swashed long ago and you have never been so sure of anything as your ability to bend everyone to your will. You will call anyone out and cut off his head if he shows any sign of taking you on or backing down. If one of your lieutenants shows an overly developed sense of ambition he may find more suitable accommodations in Davy Jones' locker. That is, of course, IF you notice him. You tend to be self absorbed - a weakness that may keep you from seeing enemies where they are and imagining them where they are not.
