2.19.09 Silver Glen Springs, FL

The outside temperature was 53 deg last night. I was up early..in my swimsuit…coffee in hand..dog in the dingy and headed for shore. While Raisin did her thing I took a swim and did a quick shampoo. Chilly but not bad…water warm…air chilly. After a change into dry clothes..I left Raisin aboard and went for a row around the springs looking for things to photograph…cloudy and cool and not much out..but did get this nice Bald Eagle. An Ahinga We were drifting up close and I think he was trying to show us how big and scary he was. 

and a Blue Heron sitting in a live oak tree.

We didnt see any gators..very few turtles..It was just too cold for them without any sunshine.  Maybe tomorrow.
