Marine...

...Life.

If you've been to sea, then you've been blessed. In all my time on the water, I have been lucky enough to see dolphins, whales, sharks, all manner of table fish, penguins, turtles, sea snakes, huge crocs, things I'm not even sure how to describe, unbelievably graceful manta rays and of course, seals.

Here's some pics from the "Aw shucks!" moments last weekend, on the very much becalmed Port Phillip. Don't let anyone tell you the Bay has suffered for the dredging.

"What you looking at Willis?"

About as close as you want to get to a 'Yankee Foxtrot' - at least this one is anchored.
SunfishLR
And certainly as close as you ever want to get to either of these!! (Sunfish above and below of course is how many containers a year end up in the drink...)
