| gen. | dive under the water | нырнуть под воду (It looked sort of like the head of a cat, with whiskers and cat-like ears perked up on its head. Its eyes were very large and expressive and it just floated there staring at me. It didn’t blink at all, just stared. Then it dove under the water and I could see it was pretty big, maybe 2 meters long. It dove under and then came up again nearby with a fish in its mouth! It gave me a look almost like “good luck with your fishing!” then swallowed the fish and dove under again to disappear. (mysteriousuniverse.org) ART Vancouver) |
