Alive on the Beach


Also, saw this Cormorand(SP?). The estuary is just starting to refill and the birds are coming back to feed. This guy was fishing in the sea.

All the other pictures made sense, but this last one, all the dead turtles, what gives?

This was a dead thing on the beach once. Honest, Isla Coronado. Now it's an ornament on the Hummer:

Ken,

Those are some serious buck teeth!!!! I see I'm not the only one into ornamenting my vehicle! We did it with a dead cow head once, thinking it had been dead long enough, but after driving down the road a ways in BCS August heat the smell that started to come through the air vents was unbearable.

Right now we only have a Marlin fin tucked into the drivers side visor. The Rooster fish fin blew out the window.

Hector of Hector and Sunshine started out on the front of Dern's Toyota before moving to his cactus. We've lost Sunshine, so Hector's a bit lonely.

"Dead thing" on a cactus.
