More walking along the Hillsborough River

 Monet might have liked this...lily pads, trees reflected, our shadows standing looking into the water, and there are some little fish in the shallow dark water also.

 Branches of a tree which blew into the water with the storm that hit on April 20.

 Looking out toward the Hillsborough River from the boardwalk, we'd sometimes see canoes paddling by.

 

Only his back shows, by looking along the same direction as the largest branch in the center of this shot.  Sort of yellow stripes across this little aligator's back.

 He must be like those cats who hide their heads and think they are invisible that way.

 Map of the park...we were on the blue boardwalk...went out almost to the end of each direction.

 I've seen many anhingas in Florida, though they mostly looked black to me.  Perhaps if their feathers were completely dried out, these shadings could be seen.

We saw one of these, but I'm pretty sure it was just a model posed in the swampy area near the boardwalk.  It was pretty though...and the model didn't move, and this was not nighttime.
