Hello, my first trip to florida is over.. i came back to cold germany yesterday.
i am still a little bit tired, also because my 14 year old daughter had a dressage tournament participate this morning.. 6 oclock wake up, 8 oclock started, and the result: Best ot the rest, 1/10 Point from a placement. But thats sports ..
anyway i am only the driver, you know.
Back to topic:
More than 5000 Pictures have to be secured and controlled and and and..
It was a great time, a great adventure and experience for me, see this beautifull little owls.. the fascinating eagles and the different herons and egrets and so on.. but i have see no alligator, ok doesn`t matter
AND again my very best thanks for all good hints and advices for my trip planning from you !!!
To the Picture:
It was the first time that i ever have seen these brown pelicans (wildlife, not in a zoo), it was very interesting to watch the hunting method.
here is an example, i have taken this picture at the Little Estero Island Critical Wildlife Area, Ft. Myers Beach.
You can easy catch the start or the not so fast flight, but it was very difficult for me too see, when the birds is hunting the short way from starting his flight down to water
I hope you like it a little bit, comments highly welcome.
