Adventures, Tips & Stories
"Adventure is not outside you, it is within." after Mary Ann Evans
Seeing & Looking
We listened, and watched. The whale came up fast out of the ocean. She opened her mouth. Gulp! "It's lunchtime. I'm hungry," said the whale. The whale looked over. "Don't get too close, you'll scare the fish," said the whale, slowly. She vanished. Silence. Gulls flew over the water. Not another sound. So, we listened more. Suddenly, there was a burst of white foam on the ocean. Many, many tiny silver fish jumped up all in a row. The whale! She rose up to gulp down the fish. She loves her favorite shrimp, for lunch. We pointed our boat away from her to be quiet. She rested on top of the ocean. Then the whale went down for awhile but soon rose up for another mouthful. "Yum," said the Whale. Then, slowly, she went back down to her friends. The moral of the story, said the Whale, is "Listen. My ocean can show you many magical things." Photos and Writings by Jim Austin Jimages
