My View of Life on the Dock
Hi Joey and Good Morning Gloucester,
I’m not sure if you accept photos from readers. Paul H. already posts great stuff. Pretty sunset yesterday evening on the Annisquam. Feel free to post this if it is a good contribution to GMG. Taken from Corliss Landing.
Sooo many people have been asking me to get visors. So I ordered a bunch of them, I posted it on Instagram last night and sold out overnight. So I ordered 18 more. let me know if you’d like one. They are $28 and we’ll have white, grey or navy.
Field of View…
M / N Contemporary Art Gallery located at 20 Pleasant Street, Gloucester. It features international ceramics artist Barbe Ennis, whose pieces spark conversation both on a social and ecological level. Artist/Owner Vanessa Michalak delves into the plein air world exploring the rhythms of nature, and Artist/Owner Rebecca Nagle expresses the power of movement in her large paintings and small collages.
Please join us on Thursday, August 8th, 4-7pm for the Opening Reception.

Distant Ship
I was finally able to capture one of the fledgling eagles we have in the area. The picture and video quality are not great due to the conditions but it was a joy to find the young eagle calling out along the river. One of the parents was in a nearby tree. As I was watching in wonderment, the young eagle lifted off with a great deal of power and strength. I could hear the wings beating and that sound has stuck with me. Watch the video with the sound on especially if you’ve never heard an eagle before. The helpful Merlin app also detected an osprey nearby!
