The Tullners!. Johnny and Eileen came for a visit mid March, like many here looking to escape a cold and snowy home in the northeast.
We have such an abundance of birds that are in and about the mangroves that just poking around is an awesome adventure, especially if you time it right.
A colony of Brown pelicans in the mangroves. At times it is like air traffic control with so many coming to roost.
We have become fascinated with mangroves and the life that is supported by their structures.
Not to mention a near obsession with really gnarly trees. They have such character.
This beautiful tri colored Heron was in amongst the mangroves. We have not seen many before, but here they are abundant.
Play ball!! Spring training in Sarasota is interesting because the game is well played and the stadiums are small and more intimate. This was the Baltimore Orioles against the Pittsburgh Pirates. And we are ready for some serious ball. Hat...check, vintage Orioles t-shirt...check, glove...drat forgot it. Watch out Kenny Singleton!
We already have our hot dogs and popcorn.
Low and inside Strike 2; 3 and 2 with no one on base
Throwing at 94mph thats gotta give some shoulder pain after a while.
We had a wonderful time with Johnny & Eileen and did some serious shopping in St Armonds Circle. That Spice and Tea shop was great.
