It's a Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood

It's a beautiful day here in Mill Creek. The sun is shining. The air is still(actually NOT good news for sailors). And, for the first time, we can hear the locusts! Oh well, there's something we had hoped to miss.

Right off our starboard, there is a nest of ospreys. Last night, one of the parents tried communicating with us. It screeched ... And it screeched .... And it screeched. I offered to throw it the rest of the tuna that we have left, but no one else would agree to that. So, we just let it continue to screech. This morning, both of them are on the nest staring at us.
