DSN Valentine Kate Winslet reminds me of mermaids. Were they ever so beautiful...?
She is shown here hunting giant squid.

That would be an Annie Leibovitz picture, which was in Vanity Fair a few years back.

Just wanted to take this opportunity to say I love your blog!

Paige,
Thanks for the picture reference and the nice comments.

I can hear David Attenborough talking on some documentary now.
"The Kate Winslet is still very much a mystery to science. Unlike most sea dwelling mammals, it does not have a thick layer of blubber to protect from the frigid deep sea temperatures were it hunts its main food source, the giant squid. Aside from the Narwhal, it is perhaps the most unique ocean mammal."
