Myakka River Wildlife

Here is the air boat we rode on through the Myakka River

So Sunday we took an air boat ride through the Myakka River and saw some amazing things!! Here is just a few pictures :-)

One of the many alligators we saw as we toured.

A wood stork

 

A tree full of turkey vultures

 

Napping alligator :-)

 

A "great egret"

 

An "anhinga"...these water birds have no oil in their feathers to keep them waterproof, so they must spread their wings and sun themselves to dry out, in between feeding on fish.

 

A flock of "American white pelicans"
