While we were walking up the walkway to the Lady Lex I noticed a shrimp boat in the ship channel fishing and saw dolphins following the boat...
By the time we got onto the Lady Lex and checked in I was afraid I missed a great photo op...I told Michael to hurry up and we walked to the bow of the Lex...I found a Huge Tug, the William H out of Houston, going into port and the shrimp boat still there with the dolphins...too cool. The shrimp boat is tiny compared to the big old Tug!
After I put the telephoto lens on and took a good look, I could see the guy pulling the net in was throwing fish to the Dolphins. No wonder they were following the boat. I also noticed when I looked at the photos on the computer the Pelican sitting on the out-rigger, LMBO...Seems everyone wanted an easy breakfast today!
I could have sat there all morning and watched, Michael had other ideas, sigh!Seemed a bit dangerous for this shrimper to be fishing in the shipping channel, as we were parking a VERY VERY Large Cargo Ship came in...I also noticed there were two young boys on the boat too...Spending time with Dad possibly or Grandpa? Wish I was out there, just to hear the stories being told and to see what they were catching.
