This little boat has seen the last of its lobstering days as it sits in the front yard of a riverside house. It can be a melancholic picture reflecting on better days past, or it can also be a nice reminder of a beautiful era of little wooden boats.
Lobster pots piled up next to a wall at Kilmore Quay harbour in Co. Wexford. I don't think they've been anywhere for a while as there are clumps of lichen growing on the bottom ones. Happy Wall Wednesday.
This bell is a trinket purchased in Nova Scotia. The little lobster hanging inside the handle is intended to honor the fact that the tiny Canadian province of Nova Scotia is the world's largest exporter of lobster (sourced from Wikipedia, hope that's right!). I guess maybe they have lots of snakes too? HMM!
This is a sculptured lobster (Parribacus antarcticus), also known as a sculptured slipper lobster. I was super excited by this find and immediately rattled my shaker to signal to Beth that I found something unusual. She was about 5 meters away and at essentially the same time started to rattle her shaker. I rattled more vigorously to say "I found something that you want to see". And then she did hers even more. Rather than having a rattling argument underwater I inspected my lobster to be sure that I could find it again and finned over to her. Whatever she found better be good. And to my incredible surprise, it was *another* sculptured lobster. But hers was sitting on an orange elephant ear sponge (shown) while mine was tucked under a ledge surrounded by rubble. So you are seeing my 2nd lobster and her first.
They are nocturnal, which is one reason we don't usually see them. But they are also not common. They are not the most beautiful of creatures, but they are interesting. The large plates in front of the eyes are actually the antennae.
We spotted a male Otter far out into a Loch appearing to be fishing...
I'm sure you can imagine my excitement when we saw it haul back a lobster! According to the locals on Mull I spoke to this is an unusual catch.
Empty chair, unfinished dingy, chunks of ice all mark the off season for lobster fisherman in the Northeast.

SH2-157 is a large, but faint emission complex in the western part of the constellation of Cassiopeia on the border of Cepheus. Its general shape resembles a New England rock lobster claw., hence its nickname. The nebula is about 11,050 lightyears from Earth in the Perseus arm of the Milky Way galaxy.

The lobster traps are set aside until the next fishing (lobster!) season begins.
This was shot on Grand Manan Island, in the Bay of Fundy.
Thanks for looking, etc.:)
This my last shot for this series from our Fall PEI vacation is of the famous Lobster Barn home of one of the best Lobster rolls on the Island, Victoria the town where it is located also boasts an Original Richards lobster roll location making the town doubly worthwhile stopping in. My plan over the next weeks is to get out and try to capture my home city like a visiting tourist as well as working on some long overdue macro work on interesting florals that will hopefully take me into Spring. I hope everyone has a great holiday break and enters the New Year full of good food, drink surrounded by loved ones and may 2023 be a year of creative ideas with determined execution.

It's been a difficult couple of years. This 77is my first photo of 2022. Hope to get back out and take many more this year.
This crustacean was built for the #tealsquadron display which is set on an ocean planet, so of course it needed some sea creatures. Compared to a minifigure it’s a giant lobster – the fauna in Star Wars tends to be intimidating. Currently it’s #timeforcrab in the building community but hopefully #timeforlobster isn’t too much of a sideways move.
