About Those Fish

 In a previous Sunday Selections I showed some fish that had been caught by my brother's friend, stating that I couldn't remember what type they were. 

Here's a reminder picture:

I texted R last night and got an answer this morning.

The smaller fish are Nanagi and the larger ones are Red Emperor.

So now we know.

    I know the Red Emperor but not the other Nanagi, which sounds like an aboriginal name.

      Me too. Red Emperors are particularly good for us because we don't like meat.

Sadly, Delores has now closed her blog forever due to other problems. The aim of the words is to encourage us to write. A story, a poem, whatever comes to mind. If you are posting an entry on your own blog, please let us know so we can come along to read it and add a few encouraging words. This month the words/prompts are supplied by River and can be found here This week's words/prompts are:  1.conviviality  2.adoration  3.willpower   4.mellow  5.gentle  6.guitar Have fun, don't use all the words if you can't,there's no pressure here.

Sunday Selections #754

Image
 Long ago, Kim of Frog Ponds Rock, (who no longer blogs), dreamed up a meme called Sunday Selections.  A place where those who were willing could put up photos they wanted to share, new, old, good, bad or indifferent, any photos you please.  Nothing rude or vulgar though.
