Monday, March 14th - Wildlife Is Abundant All Around Us

We've been making significant progress with the canopy but pictures will come when it is complete. 

In the meantime, we seem to have been encountering some interesting wildlife.  As we were walking to breakfast yesterday we walked up on these turkey buzzards as they were drying their wings.

Last night as we were working on the canopy, we spotted this alligator so Carter throws in his line.  Here's the gator's reaction!  Pretty cool.  Freaked me out good.

I have a great video of Carter reeling this thing in close to the boat but I can't upload it at the internet cafe.  I'll try at the library tomorrow.  I just tried...No luck at the library...that's unfortunate, it's a good video.

A Halcyon (also known as Kingfisher) showed up this morning at our gangplank.
