I count 8 alligators in this photo at Deep Hole. A sink hole at the south end of Lower Myakka Lake. When the Lake, and River, are low, there can be hundreds of alligators here. Water level was medium, based on experience. So, gators were spread out over the entire Myakka River. I do not think I am exaggerating when I say I may have seen 300 alligators during my paddle from the Park Bridge.
Began the day with a bike ride
Off the bike
Walk to Canopy Walkway
Back on the bike
Twins
Cabin Road
New whatever you call the roof trim
Had to add stairs as the cabin was raised
Interior detail
To the ranger station for a Wilderness Permit
Wildlife in the parking lot.
Red shouldered hawk landed.
I, launched.
All this, and I was not yet in the Wilderness Preserve.
Lower Myakka Lake
Deep Hole
Since the tables at the concession are for patrons, I forced myself to buy a beer to access the wi fi.
And, gator ribs.
To the Bird Walk
As I don't see the dirty windshield, or front tie down rope, I must have been on my bike.
A good weekend for deer.
And, me. Lucky to get the cabin for one night. Weekends require a two night stay. Unless, one rental ended on Friday,and the next begins on Sunday.
