Casey, are they gawking tourists, or, is it so unusual to see this time of year that other Canadians are highly interested in the bergs?

No need to put your face in if all you want to do is see the fish (seagrass bed). Course, it's a lot more fun to float with them. If you put your arms beside you, they think you're one of the fish, just bigger. Swim along with you and even right in front of your face!

LOL at Bob's cat. Priceless. Here's my adult son and his best friend. I just love how the dog has his paw over my son's hand. They wrestle and fight and chase each other, but apparently love each other dearly.

A reptile park in eastern Australia, North of Sydney. When we arrived we were told to it was feeding time for Charlie It involved several handler going into his pen, with a chicken attached to a 10-foot pole. They dangled the chicken over the water, Charlie lunged for it and knocked it into the water behind him. He then proceeded up out of the water, toward one of the handlers, seemingly thinking, "I'll bet you taste like chicken"

Kitties in boxes!?!? SQUUEEEE!!! Here's Duke in a box. He initially popped in there to hide from the granddaughter. She decided he needed some of his favorite toys, as well as some of her favorite things, and just loaded him up! He was so patient....I have a video also from this point till he had enough. Not sure if I can post videos.

Jim, your bird is a Gila Woodpecker. They usually eluded me by flying away, exactly when I tried to take a photo. Neat birds, though.

Rob, icebergs are fairly common here in spring and summer but they're not always this close to shore. Some are tourists but some are locals like me who enjoy seeing the icebergs and photographing them.

Oh and by the way, we here in Newfoundland consider "other Canadians" tourists, LOL. Many Canadians have never seen an iceberg as Newfoundland is probably the only place in Canada to see them.

I was just lamenting that I have never seen an iceberg IRL, but reading that many Canadians have never seen an iceberg either made me feel better. A little. I've always wanted to see aurora borealis, too. Ah well, I'm not quite dead yet. ;)
