Birdwatching

This morning we heard some birds very close behind the boat.  Both cats jumped out into the cockpit. When I looked, I saw a little tern sitting on the outboard and its buddy just landing on the dinghy tube. This caused much excitement for Buffy and Willow.

I clapped my hands and the tube bird flew off (Buffy chased it alongside the boat) and then it circled and joined its friend again on the dinghy.

Remember the two fishing boats I mentioned yesterday?  Well, this morning they left just after 5:30 am. Must have a different schedule for holiday weekends :)
