We have not been too busy the last two days, so I don’t know why I forgot to post yesterday. So here are two day’s worth of pictures around the RV park. I really need to get you out a little more often.
We were taking one of our daily walks when Andy made a pit stop. I sat by the canal to wait and watched a manatee swim by. I ocurred to me that my manatee pictures usually post don’t have any scale. So here is a 17-ft boat in the background to give an idea how long the manatee is. Adult manatees average about 10-feet long and 800 to 1,200 pounds

The manatee beat us to the end of the canal and joined two others lollygagging behind another boat.
This morning, we were sitting outside in our screen room drinking coffee when I heard a woodpecker. In previous years, they have been common on the utility pole behind our shed, but we had not seen them yet this year. I ran out to have a look. One was on the pole and its mate was in the mangroves.

Winter is not over yet so here is today’s weather report, courtesy of our neighbor Bill.

At the waterfront, there was a truce between the Snowy Egret and the Tricolored Heron. They were not a yard apart and were not paying any attention to each other.


A Little Green Heron was standing on the float.

This Plumbago is growing next to a trailer near the park entrance. It is really bluer (more blue?) than this picture shows.
Andy pointed out the moon so I took a daytime picture. It turned out better than my nighttime shots. This was at 3:00 pm.

I spotted a large iguana on a pier near the canal entrance. When they are small, they are bright green, but get more brown as they age and grow.

Here is a close up.

A walk to the post office and two walks around the RV park got me five miles on the activity tracker today. But a stop on the Publix (grocery store) scale told me that I have gained another pound. It’s diet and exercise. It’s time to add more diet to the program.
