I enjoyed watching this dolphin herding fish early one morning as I walked on the beach. It, and a couple of others, would swim rapidly then turn suddenly, throwing up a large plume of water.
This common sight is called the "Sanibel Stoop", people looking for seashells all day long.
Sanibel Island, FL Dec. 16, 2009 This thistle has a very long flower stem that is not as spiky as other thistles.
