Canaveral National Seashore (both ends), and Merritt Island National Wildlife Refue


 Pre dawn at Playalinda












 Launched at Eddy Creek.  For the first time







 The decoys had me fooled.  I was thinking, that is so cool how that one keeps flapping its wings.









 Canals








Fishing pier at the launch.


End of the road at Playalinda.












 Coot flock
I have not been to the south end of the Canaveral National Seashore in years. 15, or more.  I do not recall the "Vistas"  Pull-overs on the side of the road

 Scrub jay
Robins at a spot I have been to, many times.  The trail head for the Oak and Palm Hammock Trails












 Wisconsin Village



Boardwalk at the Visitor Center














 Stuffed eagles, inside.
On the road.

Not decoys







Vehicle Assembly Building





 Great southern white butterfly







 On the road again



 In the Mosquito Lagoon at the south, Apollo Beach, end of the Canaveral National Seashore






Shell mound?









 Castle Windy. It is an Indian Mound.
 I landed







My Mini Transect, from Lagoon to Ocean




Hard to believe it has been 16 years since the megatransect


























On the road again
Stop at the Dolphin View, for dinner.







 Took a lot home.  This may have been a 2 for 1 special.
