Ohh, Nooo! Mr. Bill learns to fly. 7049

            As many times as I look at this photo I find it, both, nostalgic and deeply disturbing.  It reminds me so vividly of Mr. Bill, the clay figurine of the 1970 and 80’s comedy sketches but at the very same time my heart sinks knowing the fear that this poor little fish is going through.  Perhaps the irony of it all is even more profound when one realizes that this all happens as the result of the heavy orange Mr. “Bill” of the Royal Tern.  Oh, well, in the sage words from the well know film, “Finding Nemo,” Nigel (Geoffrey Rush) says, “Fish gotta swim, birds gotta eat.” I guess that just about sums it up! #RoyalTern
