There were lots of young gators basking in the afternoon sun.
Walking down one path, I heard a huge splash just ahead. I never did find that gator. But I did see two that looked blue. I've only seen blue gators once before, down in south FL. Unfortunately, it was late (bad lighting) and they were a bit too far out for a decent pic. But just to show you the colour, I'll post these really bad ones:
On the way out, the shore birds had gathered for supper. What an amazing sight, There must have been hundreds, maybe thousands!
Except for the sand gnats and mosquitoes, it was a nearly perfect day, ending with a gorgeous sunset on the way home.

My favourite shot of the day... Double-crested Cormorants:

That is a nice photo of those cormorants, down to composition and everything. Good job!
We talking about St. Marks?
Nice shots Sophie. Ditto Thingfish's cormorant comment.
Thanks ever so, y'all! Every once in a while, everything goes right at the same time. 8-]
Yep, St. Marks. I never get tired of that place. And I still take pics of the lighthouse every visit. :)
That's funny - I just read the title, that you were at St. Marks. When I was looking at the photos, I thought, "That looks alot like St. Marks!" And - DERRrrr - it WAS St. Marks.
My friends and I went there often when I was a student at FSU.
What's even weirder is the fact that Thingfish's second comment is what I was about to write. Almost word for word. Even the "Derrrr" part, although I was gonna use "Duhhhhhh"
I must have totally ignored the title on my first visit.
Well, I could be mean and not say anything... I was pretty beat when I posted and forgot to add the title, so I edited it in later. 8-}
