So the boys won at cards last night so the tally is 2 to 1 in favor of the girls. We will sharpen our skills tonight. After breakfast this morning we headed out to Myakka River State Park. We did see a few things, but were disappointed with the number of birds since the last time we were here. Two years ago they were working on taking out the dam. The dam is gone and there is plenty of water this year, but the birds don’t seem to be here. So today’s list is: anhinga, great blue heron, great egret, little blue heron, cattle egret, white ibis, turkey vulture, blue-winged teal, swallow-tailed kite, American kestrel, wild turkey, black-bellied plover, black-necked stilt, dunlin, American crow, palm warbler, a few small deer and a number of large gators. We came back for lunch and some reading by the pool time. I am doing a load of laundry. We will grill chicken tonight for dinner with fresh new potatoes and green beans.
