| The canal just past the dam at the St Sebastian River Preserve State Park... The park is part of the Great Florida Birding Trail but this area is mainly a manatee viewing area, 6 miles from the visitors centre along a dirt, but good, road...sadly no sightings today....the water is warming daily and the manatees are heading back out to the atlantic... |
 |
| Not terribly clear but I did managed to get a shot of a terrapin...although on telephoto so not close they seem to have an uncanny knack of diving under the water just as I aim and click !! As they say never work with children and animals !!! |
 |
| At least this little chap didn't seem to be camera shy !!! Again taken on telephoto, even that small we do not want to be up close and personal !!! |
 |
| Yorkieman and his new hat !! |
 |
| We had a really good long walk along the very peaceful canal, not too many folks head out here, then walked some of the Yellow Trail though the pine forest..... |
 |
| On our way out of the park we stopped again at the visitors centre and had a great long chat with the rangers a delightful husband and wife "team"....they had fantastic stories to tell of their travels throughout the US working in National and State Parks.... |
 |
| 11th March....and Happy Birthday to me.....I had a fabulous day and thank you to everyone for my birthday messages, cards, e-cards, Skype/Messenger & phone calls and to new friends and neighbours who joined us for pre dinner drinks... More soon from... The One Year Older Campers !!!! |
