Waterspouts

Two waterspouts seen over Ocean Springs.

As we waded through the Mississippi Sound, doing the Sting Ray Shuffle, sampling for benthic fauna, we came across these two waterspouts. Our guide, Stephanie, from the Gulf Coast Research Lab’s Marine Education Center, said they’re not that common.

Subtly sinuous.

They’re quite elegant.

In the distance.

Fortunately, they were very far away.

Fascinating.
