Default Swim free little trout, swim free!

http://www.environmentalgraffiti.com/?p=600

"Owners of a fish farm near the village of Alresford have been raising
fish for nearly 30 years. Recently they noticed some of their brown
trout appeared to be missing. Then a local wildlife photographer and
friend of the fish farmers made an amazing discovery.

Dennis Bright captured images of the trout leaping 3 feet out of the
water into the mouth of an 8 inch wide metal feeding pipe. The pipe
leads to a tributary of the River Itchen about 30 feet away. To get to
the water, the trout had to leap into the tiny metal pipe then swim
against the swift current."

That really is most incredible and interesting. However, the link you
provided tries to download some possibly dangerous rubbish. I did not
look any closer at it, but it might be a rogue "anti-spyware" program.

At least one of the things it tries to download is a "data miner". I
blocked all further links. I would advise caution when clicking on
this link.

Really! I loaded it up and had no difficulty, but then I run Linux.

One of my anti-virus programs gave a warning.

No big deal, I just thought it is better to be safe than sorry.
