World Ocean Day...

It was World Oceans Day on Wednesday the 11th of June 2011, just gone, and its disappointing that it didn't appear to make mainstream media in Australia...

Our Oceans are being hit harder with waste than ever before and plastic now out weighs plankton...

Just this year in Australia alone, think of all the extra plastic and toxic waste that ultimately ended up in our waterways and oceans as a result of the terrible flooding and cyclone activity...

Where does it all go??? In the Oceans, out of sight and out of mind until its too late!!!

Its time for us to change our habits and not buy or use disposable plastic...Every piece of plastic that ends up in the ocean stays in the ocean, forever or until a marine bird or animal eats it...

From majestic flight...
To spectacular hunting display....
To ironic art spectacle display...
The Albatross is one of the most majestic of birds who often circumnavigate the world at amazing speeds (fastest ever recorded is 46 days) with minimal effort riding the winds and the waves. They eat primarily from the surface and pray on bright shinning marine life... that is until human waste has filled the see with plastic...
