Thanks for posting this, I could use a little virtual sailing reality to get me through fixing my engine. Going to be too long until I get out of the slip.
Made me think of Jonathon Livingston Seagull.

Imagine him flying over your boat and taking a crap! What a mess! At least he can't perch on your wind vane!

I'll assume you're referring to Kermits ostrich. I can usually hold it when flying over boats. :laugh:

I'm glad y'all like the video. Sometimes I feel like the ostrich about life in general.

Imagine having a virtual reality goggle that helps with engine repair. Particularly outboards? WHOOT

Good thing they can't fly like your Osprey, or you would have a droppings problem on your boat.:yikes:
Jim...
Oh dang. I never thought of that! Take those goggles off him immediately!

Yes, my slip looks out at an osprey nest on a piling, I found something that made me think of a hairball from a cat one day. Had to have been a "present" from an osprey.

That's a pellet. Birds of prey eat everything and then hack up what they can't digest. Bone, fur, feathers, scales and the like. Owl pellets actually have monetary value in classrooms. High quality barn owl pellets seem to have the greatest value.

Are they odorless pellets? Can Peggy tell us how to find odor free pellets?
I have some deer and rabbit pellets left over the weekend in my yard... Would love to sell them, or even give them away if you can pay shipping.

I know Kermie.. I have a couple of cat pellets that were coughed up I can offer, just more of the deer and rabbits... It is a supply and demand thing.... I have a varied supply, and looking for a demand... Would love to accommodate your needs....:biggrin::liar:
