Heading South?

 

This 60" Black Grouper recently arrived in the Bahamas, after departing Block Island aboard a patron's private trawler earlier in the year. 

Public installation on display in sachem pond

Best viewed just after sunset, this six foot striped bass sculpture will be on display through the month of September. Mounted on an abstract wave tripod and secured to the pond bottom, the fish itself is designed to be flexible and is animated every afternoon by the Island's dependable breezes. If you are a new visitor and would like to see the sculpture, follow Corn Neck Road to the north end of the Island. Sachem pond cannot be missed. 

It's about that time...

We've had a few warmish days in a row here on the Island and all I can think about is getting in the water.

Bottom Dwellers...

The Fluke or Summer Flounder is a flatfish native to the Western Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico. In the summer months it is common in New England waters and Long Island Sound, where it often follows schools of sand eels, its favorite prey.

Horseshoe crabs are not in fact a crustacean but rather belong to a more ancient order of creatures. They patrol the seafloor and feed on mollusks and worms and are commonly found in salt marshes.

Beginning in April, Littlefield Fish will be swimming south and north to be available at exclusive coastal locations. A list of galleries and retailers for the 2010 season will be published shortly. New designs are also on the way.
