You mean you didn't invite him aboard for a bit? One of the most amazing
experiences during our shakedown cruise was the visitation of the adolescent
barn swallow (click my URL below and then click the Swallow pic) way
offshore in the Gulf of Mexico.

However, I agree I'd just as soon keep my avian encounters to that type :{))

the tree in the gallery to the guestki folder and see the kits she's
rescued...)

Well I would have liked to - but he (the sparrow hawk) was a bit
spooky. Even when he was sitting back on the solar panel, he when Bob
went out on deck to put out the dock lines, he wouldn't stay put. He
did ride with us from somewhere off SC up to Charleston (we were
offshore about 15 miles).
