There’s a little beach off the coast of north Florida I’ve been going to since I was a wee little sea cow, and during a recent visit there were some wee BIG sea cows – manatees!

It’s rare for manatees to be in the ocean but with creeks, rivers, and springs near this beach, manatees are becoming more common.

I floated in a kayak near a spring and sure enough there were two manatees. As slow as they swim it was still not so easy to get photos…but I managed to get a few.


Isn’t it amazing the different types of wildlife one can encounter on any given day?
Thanks for stopping by!
