Finally Catching Up With Pictures!!

I have an opportunity to catch up with posting pictures since we have a good Wi-Fi signal here at Oscar Scheres State Park in Osprey, Florida. We are between Venice and Sarasota for those that want to find us on the map.


This is Bear Creek at Flamingo, Florida in the Everglades. This is the southern tip of the Florida mainland.

This is one of the only places in the world where crocodiles and alligators co-mingle. This is a twelve foot croc sunning itself. The one in the bottom of the picture is only about eight feet long.

Here we are canoeing on Nine Mile Pond in Everglades National park. The park offers guided trips and supplies all the necessary equipment.


They have Burmese Pythons in the Everglades too! This is a skin from one that was captured recently.

Lots of wildlife at Royal Palm boardwalk. This is an Anhinga giving itself a pain in the neck. These are diving, fish eating birds. We saw one swallow an eight inch catfish whole!

A white egret looking for a meal.

A green heron near the pond.


Turtles sunning on a log.

The great blue heron.

A purple gallinule. It has wide feet and walks on the lily pads.

And of course, alligators!!
