Gulf tragedy 5

•



Do you want to be frightened yet again? Google "nightmare well" and learn just how the Deepwater Horizon became a nightmare well.

It remains to be seen, but if the oil washing ashore along the Gulf Coast works its way inland into freshwater lagoons, estuaries, marshes, rivers and lakes, then birds like the fish-eating anhinga, or snake bird, will sooner or later be impacted.

Above is a 2009 photo of an oil-free anhinga taken by Wayne Mallinger.

Thanks again for sharing, Wayne.
