Stumbled across an interesting web page today at Field & Stream. It’s a photo gallery, with some accompanying insight, of the situation with the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. It offers some interesting perspective on the situation, and it’s worth checking out for those that are concerned about what’s happening.

Another interesting site has been developed by a pair of local fishermen. Like Field & Stream, the site Drilled By BP offers an insider’s perspective. The site promises frequent updates to separate the fact from fiction in this ever-expanding disaster.
