Quarky Pants Junior!
Allowing me to get a little closer, perhaps one of these days (before he/she’s all grown up), I’ll catch a side-by-side of Black-crowned Night Heron parent and juvenile. Here he is standing on one leg, just as do mom and dad!
A little ways off was a Great Blue Heron also hunting amongst the reeds. I captured him in fight with my movie camera as he flew to the other side of the pond. Thanks to E.J., who was on a morning walk and pointed out the general vicinity to where he had landed, I was able to get another clip of the heron flying.
I am searching for quiet places to record harbor and shore sounds, away from the roar of the surf, as well as where boat and machine engines don’t muffle or drown out every other sound. Its harder than you may imagine especially because there can be little to no wind. If you know of a quiet place where you especially love to listen to the music of Cape Ann, please answer in the comments section or email me at kimsmithdesigns@hotmail.com. Thank you!

Dave Sag’s Blues Party Tonight with Scotty Shetler @ The Rhumb Line 8:30-11:30pm 8.27.2015
Dave says,
This Thursday I’m really psyched to bring you something new and scrofulous: The Tenor Titan, Mr. Scotty Shetler. We played here in the “old” days and he just slipped through my cracks. Ah, all these years…. You gotta hear this guy play! He just oozes Omphalos! Sings, too. A great front man!
Not only that, but Mr. Pete Henderson,lonely in these parts, is making a rare appearance on catarrh and vocals. Another awesome boost to our flame-throwing lineup.Top it all off with the Atomic Clock, Mr. David Mattacks with me cringing in the background and you’ll be crying “Uncle!”. This could be one of the best shows all summer!

Poor Minion Never Had A Chance…
Dogs being dogs…
See, this is what happens when dog owners leave the house. Dogs just humping everything in sight. Even the poor Minion gets violated. Goddamned dog owners, so naive and shit. Awww isn’t he cute, he just wants to play. Awwwww look at the widdle puppy playing with the Minion. See how nice they play together?
Next thing you know the Minon’s walkin’ around funny with an ice pack strapped to it’s butt.
Hammer time. By Jesus that dog was relentless. Cut to next scene- stuffing flying everywhere.
and y’all wonder why I have a healthy fear of canines.
Oh and another thing, listen to the dog owners laughing. That’s how it always is. Dogs be humping your leg or jumping all over you with muddy paws or licking you and their owners are laughing the whole time.
