Manatees and Eagles

When we drove through Ding yesterday, we didn’t see any dolphins, although other people saw them yesterday and today. But, we did see some manatees frolicking the in water. They didn’t surface enough to get great pics, but it was fun watching them. You have to wonder how these big mammals get from the bay into the shallow water at Ding.

The only other wildlife we saw at the refuge yesterday were a Green Heron and a Great Egret in the early morning light. I love the colors on the Green Heron, but he wouldn’t turn so I could see his face.

The eagles I’ve been watching are busy with their “nestoration”. They are so much fun to watch.

Now, just leave it where I put it!

Hmmmph. We’ll see about that after you leave.

If you want something done right, sometimes you just have to do it yourself. Know what I mean?
