A Real Pro!

 My fishing was being critiqued by a pro! I don't think he was impressed. 

The symbol of our nation!

Crested Caracara

We feel incredibly fortunate to have spotted two Crested Caracara driving through the orange groves and cattle farms on our way home from the tractor show last night!! Their numbers have greatly declined since the 1960s due to habitat loss, but, thanks to state and federal Fish and Wildlife departments, their numbers are improving. They are striking looking raptors, we're so glad we got to see them!!! This is a royalty free stock photo, I couldn't get a picture myself.

Took a short hike yesterday

Took a short hike yesterday to enjoy the <slightly> lower humidity. Saw this guy and a couple of his brothers sunning in the duckweed in a flooded area next to the trail.

You're never the only fisherman on the water.

You're never the only fisherman on the water. Fishing gives us some tremendous wildlife viewing opportunities if you can remember to stop and look around once in a while.
