You might think this is a picture of my sweet Maggie, but not true. While she was on the seawall looking adorable and I grabbed my camera, it wasn’t for a photo of her, but what was going on behind her. Look closely and you will see small ripples. That is a manatee.
We’ve had many manatees in the canal this spring. But, as I’ve posted before, manatees do not photo well, they just look like big gray rocks.
I usually notice them first because of the small ripples, a snout sticking out, or a large figure eight shape just under the water.

Still look like an odd gray rock formation!
