On the road again !

We left Mayaka River this morning and are staying the night with Bob and Donna at Port Charlotte. We will be pulling out of here on Tuesday morning and heading down to a state park near Marco Island.
Here are some pictures we took at Mayaka River...

This place is awesome for seeing wildlife. These are Roseate Spoonbills. They are pink like flamingos.

You can see the pink better when they are flying.

From the boardwalk we saw this huge flock of white pelicans. There were also a couple of bald eagles flying around.

This is a yellow rat snake. We know that because there was a sign that talked about yellow rat snakes and we saw this guy crawling up a tree about twenty feet down the path!


This was a huge alligator, about eleven feet long. He'd make a great suitcase!
