Sloanniah the Mermaid with a Pigeon Guillemot Friend

Mermaids are beautiful sentient beings.  They live in both ocean and freshwater environments. . . in communities that they keep magically hidden from mortal eyes.  Sloanniah is a Mermaid with a propensity for befriending seabirds.  Here we see her resting offshore on a rock and feeding a Pigeon Guillemot - who is one of her friends.  

Soanniah is also known as a Fitness Mermaid.  She participates in helping other merpeople stay in shape.  Seeing how many of us mortals could use some help, she has been known to go on land and help train and educate humans on how to stay in shape.  Of course, when she is on land she uses her magic to transform her fish-like tail into legs.  If you met her you would not know that she was a Mermaid in disguise.  But unlike many of the legends, Mermaids are kind and like to help mortals, not drown them.  

You must have noticed Soanniah's wings.  Some Mermaids DO have wings.  These wings are used for swimming AND flying above the waves like flying fish do.  Not all Mermaids have wings, but some do. 

The Pigeon Guillemot is a bird that is in the Auk family of birds.  It lives on the western coasts of North America.  It also lives along the coasts of Northern Asia.  It is a carnivore and feeds on fish and small marine invertebrates.  It is only about 12 to 15 inches long.  That is 30-37 cm.  THIS bird is a juvenile that just got its black adult plumage.
