Nicolette Wallenda

Nicolette (I call her Nikki) was walking the rope looking for small fish. After 11 minutes, she had exactly zero catches. Zero, nada, none. Since I have seen this many times in Florida, I thought she could use my help.

"I don't think your rope is taut enough."

"Please don't tell me about the rope,
don't need to hear that from a camera dope."

"Don't you think the wind is too strong?"

Please don't tell me the sea is rough,
and from you I've heard enough!"

" I think your attack level is too high."

"Thanks for your input of being too high,
now why don't you turn and go bye-bye."

"From that angle, can you even dip down and strike?"

"YES! I CAN STILL REACH DOWN AND STRIKE!
NOW WHY DON"T YOU GO TAKE A HIKE!"

Ok, that was enough! All I was trying to do was help.

I named Nikki after Nik Wallenda, who is tight-roping over a volcano in Nicaragua tonight. He and his family are from this area. A couple years back, I saw him tight-rope over a local orange grove. 

In the Xtras is a great egret with a sea gull photo-bomb.
