Enjoying the pier at Ft. Myers Beach Janet and Paul. We took the trolley from nearby Gulf Waters RV Resort and was dropped off at the north end of the island at Bowditch County Park where we enjoyed a beach walk to the pier at "Times Square"--named such for being the hub of the strand at Ft. Myers Beach.
Along our walk, we saw this working fishing boat and many seabirds.
On
Sanibel Island at the Ding Darling Wildlife Preserve, we took a late afternoon tour in the bay where we saw many seabirds coming to roost for the evening in the mangroves. Prior to our eco-tour, we were at the learning hands-on tanks to become familiar with the residents of the bay and Gulf.
Our tour guide was excellent at helping us discover the different birds and their habits.
Egrets, Cormorants, Pelicans, Seagulls, among other residents getting ready to
bed down for the night on this sandbar. Most of the birds were sitting in the tops of the mangroves.
All the little white dots you see in this mangrove area are the seabirds settling in for the night.
