I had an feathery experience while swimming in the ocean...at the beach in front of my house is a rock which, at high tide, I dive from. I swim a set number of strokes out, then swim back in. So I've done about ten of these out and backs, and am feeling pretty winded. After swimming out again, I float on my back, recovering. An eagle dives down and swoops over me, about a metre above my body...I could see his belly, talons, tail feathers, etc so clearly! But it also spooked me! Thank goodness he didn't think I was a salmon...

    That picture was taken 38 years ago and found in a roll of undeveloped film, in Jean Guy's basement after he passed away. It was developed a couple of weeks ago by Rejean Lacoursiere. It is amazing that it turned out as well as it did. When Johnny saw it he sent it to me and his first word was "WOW" then - "have a look at this". George www.swimdownhill.com
