Holding Marley Coffee’s Jamaican Blue Mountain yesterday. Jamaica plays a large role in my new novel and I love my memories of Jamaica as well. At least in spirit, I can enjoy it through the coffee. Plug: My book MAKING YOUR OWN GOURMET COFFEE DRINKS (Skyhorse Publishing) is available.
I nice view of this neat species. 
I like this series, showing the plunge to the water, picking up the fish, and flying off.
