Salty Book Reccomendation From Judy B

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

Hey Joey, 

Reading a book right now that I’d recommend to GMG fans.  

It’s called “In Danger At Sea: Adventues of a New England Fishing Family”.  Publishd by Down East Books.

It’s the real deal, written by the sea captain himself: Captain Samuel Cottle.

He came from a long llne of fisherman, & felt it was a blessng to have been born into a family of fisherman & seafarers.

He fished the Atlantic out of Point Judith in RI, & his many adventures & insights are wonderful to read.

Tuesday it was a balmy 36 degrees, and the snow is slowly melting.  A pretty day.

A Ride to Salisbury State Reservation

Posted on by Pat D

As I have mentioned, we take regular rides north to Parker River Wildlife Refuge and Salisbury State Reservation. We are seeking interesting animals, birds or scenery. This time all we were able to capture relatively close was this Northern Harrier hawk on the hunt. These hawks are nortoriously unpredictable and swift flyers. Sometimes they pause to watch the ground for prey as you see here. This time it decided not to swoop down and instead change direction and continue hunting away from its observers. They are quite striking though.
