Whale Sharks And Fairy Terns: Opposites Attract

I just got home from a talk and slide show given by Susan Scott.  She is one of the bird counters and has been all up inside the Sea of Cortez.  She's seen hella.  Her best photos were of Whale Sharks, which are the biggest fish in the world.  Apparently there are a shit ton of them at the northern end of the S.O.C.  You can just go out and swim with them like you're some kind of King of the Sea Nature God.  Anyway, now I hella want to go there and get my Whale Shark on.  

Dan's Photos That Should Be On Hallmark Greeting Cards: Part 2.

This is me nearly losing a finger.

Midway: Day 2

So I may go for a TPAD marathon today.  I'm considering switching to writing the blog in the evening at the end of every day.  We'll see. Yesterday was my first full day on island.  I went through an orientation Powerpoint and then I drove a golf cart all around everywhere, seeing some of our work sites and trying not to run over any Goonies.  After dinner, I was trying to TPAD but I just fell asleep and failed at my one true purpose in life: Blogging.  For now, I'm probably going to be putting up  all the photos of the Life Birds that I get.  This should carry us through the next couple of days.  Enjoy.

This is a White Tern.  Like most of  the birds out here, they are very friendly and curious.  One of the other volunteers thinks they look evil.  I say they pretty.
