It’s a couple of weeks short of 2 years since we moved from Sanibel Island, inland to Fort Myers. We were very fortunate to be unaffected through the devastation of Ian. But, even five months later we have friends who are still struggling to recover their homes and businesses on the island. The Ding Darling National Wildlife Refuge is working hard with recovery efforts so that it can open to the public once again.
In the meantime, I’ve taken some photos from my yard and from a quick trip through Six Mile Cypress Slough. First, the photos from my yard, beginning with a Great Blue Heron.
