The Conservancy of Southwest Florida sponsors cruises in Rookery Bay.
Rookery Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve stretches across 110,000 acres of pristine mangrove forest, uplands and protected waters, encompassing 40% of Collier County coastline.
The cruise begins in the afternoon and finishes at sunset.
There are lots of pelicans, some on the water, some in trees, some in the air.

And a few great blue herons.
And osprey.
And double-crested cormorants.
Tomorrow: sunset on Rookery Bay.

I will occasionally see a heron along a river or Creek here...it makes me so happy!
That sounds like a wonderful cruise, Jack!
Sounds like a perfect place for wildlife spotting.
Beautiful birds.
Wonderful bird photos. Your last one brought a smile. The birds seem to know this is their space.
