Been on my feet working all day. My hands/body ache, but it is what is required to provide food for us. Not a complaint. I like being connected to my nourishment. I know exactly where it comes from, how it was cared for and what it takes to have such a basic need met. I am grateful. Time for a wave of pure WATER!

Yeah, there is something fishy going on! Another grouper. Here in Florida we are known for these beautiful fish...I know right now we are known for crap politics, but I have to live here due to Hubby's job, so I am looking on the bright side as much as I can! Eyes on the ocean....ahhhhh

#Seagulls are disappearing
“Birdlife Australia data shows reports of silver gulls are decreasing across the country. We've built our cities around the coastal plains and estuaries where they would naturally be anyway, so they have adapted to us coming into their territory”.
'The scourge of the skies' are intelligent birds that have learned to benefit from human #rubbish.

Why #Ecologists Are Haunted by the Rapid Growth of #GhostForests

A study in North Carolina of dying #trees may represent a foreboding preview of what may come to #coastal #ecosystems worldwide.

by Jim Morrison

"As the ocean intrudes and saltwater rises, it kills trees and creates these ghost forests—bare trunks, and stumps, ashen tombstones marking a once-thriving coastal ecosystem. In North Carolina, #pine, #RedMaple, #sweetgum and bald #cypress forests are being replaced by saltmarsh. Eventually, that saltmarsh will be replaced by open water, a shift that leads to significant and complex costs to the environment and the local economy. The loss of forests will reduce carbon storage, further fueling climate change, and the agriculture industry, timber interests will suffer as saltwater moves inland."

Another fun puffer! Don't be fooled though. There's enough poison in 1 pufferfish to kill 30 adults. NO antidote. The skin is covered in spikes with this poison and can damage your hands or kill you. It's unfortunate that the dangerous things are so darn cute...lol

PEACE SHELLS
Seashells are love letters in the sand

This image was inspired while strolling along a Gulf Coast beach recently. A few moments of time for me to enjoy all the peace and serenity I find near the coast. A short escape from all the turmoil facing our world. A simple little message to of "peace"

I was walking in the edge of the beautiful, cool, clear water, sinking in the soft sand and trying not to fall...and thankfully I did not. We spent a day at the Puerto Seco beach in Discovery Bay which is near Ocho Rios Jamaica and where the ship was docked on our April cruise. Digital brushes & textures used for a painterly effect.

I'm a beach girl, and there's nothing I love more than being the first person up in the morning looking for treasures from the sea.

The canvas is covered with the pretty fan-shaped bivalve shells, their tops deeply ridged. If you look closely you can find a few unicorn horns hidden among the scallop shells, and on the left of the image is one long razor shell.

The skies are pink and blue streaked and there's a hint that sunrise is behind the clouds. The water and the wet beach sand are reflecting the same colors and the pier.
