Destination: Search for missing hunters.

 |
| 1) There were a lot of boats, helicopters and planes involved in the search for the two missing hunters today. I decided to help out by doing a counter clockwise loop around Big Island. Despite the somber objective, I managed to enjoy a beautiful paddle. |
 |
| 2) Bay John was out of the wind, calm and the waters were very shallow (less than a foot). |
 |
| 3) This cover of Coots was one of many seen today. |
 |
| 4) On Blakeley River I caught the full force of the 20 mph winds and had to fight the current going upstream. The wind was so strong I had to feather the paddle and put on a spray skirt. Waves were slapping the kayak at 45 degrees generating a cold spray that soaked my right side. Time to get that nice Stearns breathable rain jacket from Walmart for 29 bucks... |
 |
| 5) White Ibis were crab hunting. |
 |
| 6) In Ducker Bay there were some trees with a little foliage left on them. |
 |
| 7) An Osprey Eagle having a bad hair (feather) day. Those talons sure look sharp. |
 |
| 8) Some egrets and herons were having a gathering. |
 |
| 9) Sunset over Pass Picada with the Oyster House restaurant in the background. |
 |
| 10) Sunset not far from the launch site. |
