The Guys In The Grey Suits

   In between tanning and getting ready to depart Salt Pond tomorrow, we were entertained by fish the better part of the day.  Although difficult to see in the upper photo, the little white streaks are a school of bait fish, each about 1 1/2" long,  jumping out of the water because a predator fish is looking for a meal.
     The lower photo, well, that's a predator fish.  A very big predator fish.  It's a shark about 1,000 feet from Big Run.  In the photo the shark is toying with a piece of drift wood.  This is the second time the shark surfaced to attack the piece of wood.  Sharks are called many names but the name I like the best is "the guys in the grey suits".

Very cool photo of the shark!

We hoped the shark would come back a third time because the object (stick) it was attacking drifted to within 200 feet of the boat. That would have made for some better photos.
