That huge tree on the beach made me remember all of the repair jobs I did on boats that hit large unseen objects in the ocean. Containers busted off of cargo ships, zillions of tons of tsunami debris, whales... you name it. One boat had a timber blast through the port side and exit through the starboard side. Huge power in the water.

After a cyclone one year - around 35 NM off shore, there was a tree about 8 mtrs (26 feet) in length floating on the surface, nothing really strange about that - but this tree was completely upside down, the root ball was at the surface and the green leafy side was 8 mtrs down. We came across it in early dawn, thanking our lucky stars that we didnt hit those very hard and sharp roots in the dark in our plywood hulled 45 foot boat.... Central Qld, early 80's.

@Leosarebetter - The ocean isn't empty and I don't like floating in it. I'll take bears, wolverines and mountain lions any day of the week over floating off in a puddle. Dunno why.

Fran, I could tell that you went from having an absolute glow of health beauty around you to a look of exhaustion. Wow, that’s definitely a lesson that you learned the difficult way. You need to rehydrate. I could see it… Comes from being a long distance runner and bicyclist. Hydrate and eat the green supplement you market so that you snap back quickly. May God bless you both.

People should be reminded or made aware that throughout all the years you've been doing this, it's not all a perfect and enjoyable experience. There are times where bad weather hits, or tension and problems cause stress and it can really suck and people can even get upset and or have difficulty dealing with.

Fran was right- that definitely was not a chicken :) It's one of the Porphyrio swamphens, probably purple swamphen. They're remarkably long-distance movers from time to time, so probably got lost or blown out to sea as it was out and about, picking that spot as last refuge. Poor thing.
