Sanibel Thursday

 Kayaking with nephew, Derek, and his spouse, Stephanie

Morning walk

2 eagles at the 16D tree

Saw the sunrise

Dolphin. You can barely see the dorsal fin

Went kayaking with my nephew Derek, and his wife, Stephani.e

Bald eagle

I took them to where I had seen manatees.

Of course, we did not see any.   I thought I heard one. It was Derek, blowing his nose.

Finally, not to long before heading back,  we saw manatees. I failed to get a photo of any of them

Landed at 1:20. Saw two huge iguanas on the way out. Failed to get a picture of those, too. Deleted the photo of the hood of the Outback.

Start of an afternoon bike ride

Into the Bailey Homestead Preserve

City of Sanibel Retention Ponds

Gathering place for birds.

And iguanas.

When I heard this one slide in from the bank, I hoped it was an alligator.

There were a lot of iguanas.

Great egrets, cormorants, and iguanas.

Back on the bike path

To the fishing pier

Back at the condo, my brother and sister in law were off for a beach walk.  I joined them.

Found myself back at the fishing pier.

With dolphins.

Began the day with a hare, ended with a tortoise
