Sanibel Causeway

Captain Morgan for illustrative purpose only

On Pine Island Sound at 6:27 PM.  If I launched from the other side of the Causeway, I would be in San Carlos Bay

 Saw two dolphins. Or,  one. Circling.

 Trying to get rainbow shots through an underwater case in the rain

Blackwater Creek

 After emptying a kayak full of rain water, I was on the Creek  at 5:58.  Traffic on I-4 was slower than usual in these Covid-19 times.  Not because of volume.  Rain. Very heavy rain. Started just before I left the home office. So heavy and fast, there was water in the long dry community retention pond.  As you can see, it let up.  Both Weather.com and Accuweather had little chance of rain in the early evening forecast.

 Paddled up the Creek

Mocassin Springs campsite

 The forecast was wrong.

 It came down hard. Thunder and lightning.

 Not good conditions for photography.  There is an anhinga in the tree below.

The below shot had a deer.

Landed at 7:57.
