Default Islands in the stream.


Saharan dust blew off the west coast of Africa and over the Canary
Islands on November 11, 2006. The Moderate Resolution Imaging
Spectroradiometer (MODIS) flying onboard NASA's Terra satellite took
this picture the same day. In this image, parallel plumes of pale beige
dust blow off the coasts of Morocco and Western Sahara.

Anyone here got a monkey in their family tree who told them that if it
wasn't for the yellow sand the canaries would just be finches like
everywhere else?
