Unexpected Company
We had often heard an osprey in the neighborhood, and then
noticed him/her up on one of the shoreside rooftops. I guess after
nearly 90 days in one place, we began to look like a landmark, because suddenly
we had a visit.

DIVE, DIVE, DIVE!
What does one do in Bonaire when time is running out?
Dive as much as possible, of course. Barb and I had a couple of
additional chances to try our hand at underwater photography: first Kim
and Steve (Northern Star) each let us try out their two cameras, and then
Sharon (KoKomo Kat) let us each try her two cameras. Here are
a few of the least-bad efforts:
