. The bread was intended for the ducks ... somebody neglected to inform the eels who made short work of devouring it all before nibbling on the ducks legs for dessert !
A short while back... circa early 1960s actually... as a trusty member of the RNZAF Air Scouts at the time... I recall going on Scout Camps where we caught similar eels in the pristine icy water creeks in the foothills of the Kaikoura Mountain Range in Marlborough Province. This is over in Aotearoa, the Land of the Long White Cloud. We found the best way to cook an eel was to chop off the head & tail, clean it and toss the rest of it into a dixie and boil it over an open campfire. With just a little imagination it tasted very similar to crayfish !
PS : How did you get the eel to blow bubbles Andy ?
Hello. This post is likeable, and your blog is very interesting, congratulations :-). I will add in my blogroll =). If possible gives a last there on my blog, it is about the TĂȘnis e Sapato, I hope you enjoy. The address is http://tenis-e-sapato.blogspot.com. A hug.
Although the original concept for this photo-blog may have changed somewhat due to Life, Love etc (ad nauseum), I WILL chip away at this thing (where possible) until I have completed the countdown from 365. Who knows, I may have a sudden rush of available time (cough) or overwhelming inspiration and still complete the project within the 12 months, although the realist in me says "you're dreamin' mate" ... Whatever, However and Whenever, fruition SHALL be reached (and I have it on good advice that Fruition is a rather nice place, particularly in Spring) :o)
