seen yesterday at the feeder

So a couple of you may remember when I posted a photo a couple months ago of a 11.5" northern-strain bull, and happened to mention that I went fishing that day because I had seen a much larger fish that I thought might have been a bluegill (didn't get a great look, just the side of its body as it rolled to get away from the boat) a few days prior to that...

I stand and watch her until at length, she hangs like a speck of white cloud just where the sea and sky come to mingle with each other.



Someone at my side finally says, "There, she is gone!"



"Gone where?" I ask.



Then I realize - she is gone only from my sight. That is… Continue
