Other Sea Life
Besides alligators, there was other sea life down in Big Cypress
National Park! Let’s take a look…..
At the Surface Feeding
I really like this image, not for the fish (altho it is rather
cute), but for just how it looks like it’s floating in nothing in this
image. When I took the photo, it was
rather dark and I had doubts that I’d even see the fish, but when I processed
it, it came out pretty cool!
Manatee Surfacing
When we stopped at one of the Visitor’s Centers at Big Cypress,
there was a manatee that seemed to visit the same area each day. We were lucky enough to be there when he made
his appearance, and I got a couple of semi-cool shots. They never seem to totally surface, so these
images (above and below) are about as clear an image of a manatee that I could
get! This was a big guy, tho – hard to
tell because he was in the middle of the water area with nothing around him for
perspective – maybe 6-8 feet long!

Turtle
And here are a couple of shots of two different turtles (above
and below) along the boardwalk near the cypress strands. I had a difficult time seeing their heads at
first because their backs were not totally exposed. They really are quite large!
Turtle Lookin’ at You
Enjoy!
