Boudoir marina

A lot of manatees have visited our marina in the past few weeks. Singles, mother and calf, and yesterday a rather amorous couple who used our marina as their boudoir.

Note the propeller scars on the larger one. Sadly few adult manatee escape this type of injury.

This is a not-to-clear picture of mother manatee and calf. The mother has a large propeller injury and the calf just has its nose out of the water.

I almost hesitate to include the next picture since it was visible to everyone; however, during a happy hour last weekend that persisted into the evening, Ron (next door neighbor)  got out his big camera and tripod for this full moon shot.
