| 1) Had planned to do the Mobile River loop but decided to stay in calmer waters today. It was pretty in Lower Crab Creek. |
 |
| 2) Pelicans taking off in Polecat Bay. |
 |
| 3) Gulls on the move. |
 |
| 4) Saw two Eagles today. Looks like this one has taken over an old Osprey nest. |
 |
| 5) This river dog was of respectable size. |
 |
| 6) Taking a stretch and snack break. I planned on coming back in the dark - hence the 360 degree light. |
 |
| 7) Blackbirds resting on an old duck blind to watch the sunset on Big Bateau Bay. |
 |
| 8) Mardi Gras colors on the downtown buildings. This was a wonderful paddle! |
