Upcoming Eco Tours Boat Trip
I have been working with St. Augustine Eco Tours to provide boat trips along the Matanzas and Tolomato Rivers for photography and bird watching. Captain Zach Mckenna is a wildlife researcher and naturalist with two decades of experience on our waterways. I am a Florida Master Naturalist and I am particularly knowledgeable about the birds. We have two boats scheduled for February 20 and 22 starting at 8:30 am to look for the birds who winter along the Tolomato River. Following are links to two Tolomato Boat Trips. These are two hour trips with a limit of 10 participants to allow room for photography gear. The cost is $65 per person. The boat will leave the St. Augustine Municipal Marina and take 1/2 hour to get near the airport and mouth of the Guana River to see the birds that winter here. There are usually large numbers of white pelicans at this time of year and plenty of oystercatchers. The boat will hang out for an hour and then take 1/2 hour to get back. The winter visitors will start migrating back soon, so this is the best chance for a good Tolomato River trip until next fall.
Last week I got to spend some time photographing northern right whale Ghost and her newborn calf. At the end of the video, there is a boat. They are trying to get a DNA sample of the calf. I’ve been having trouble with WordPress lately and my current problem is an inability to embed the whale video. The best I am currently able to do is give you the ugly link below and let you know it is currently the most recent video on that link.
I recently completed a felting of my friend’s dog Bella.
