Summer Sampler — pat morss

Posted on by patmorss

Here’s a sampling of some unrelated goings on.

Starting the day before sunrise with the full moon setting behind the Boston skyline.
Fishing vessels are all different. Ocean Venture can rig as a seiner (above) or a trawler.
Onnered was built as a small tanker, and must now have Swedish fishing connections (see bow flag).
Brigantine Corwith Cramer approaches Gloucester in the haze, doing just fine under one squaresail.
Common Eider moms share their kids’ day care duties, at Raymond Beach.
This surely isn’t an Osprey. But, we heard one landed nearby recently at the Eastern Point Audubon Sanctury.
Turkey tightrope.
Young males practicing their tail display techniques.
We know daisies spread easily, but this is ridiculous.
“Why did you humans name a tick after me? It’s humiliating.”
Eddy Egret glides in over Niles Pond.
Performs a Moon fly-by.
And departs over the ocean.

New Playground Installed In Bay View

Posted on by Pat D

The Gloucester DPW has recently installed new playground equipment in the small neighborhood playground area in close vicinity to the Bay View Fire Station. I am not sure if it has officially opened yet. Perhaps someone can update us all.
