As promised I am posting two pictures of plants we saw yesterday - Indian blanket and scarlet sage.
We played one game of cards last night and the boys won so now we stand at 5 to 5.
This morning Russ went for a run. The skies were overcast and he even ran through a few sprinkles on the way home. After everyone had showered and had breakfast we went to the store to pick up a few items. We went to the airport to pick up our friend Susanne who flew down from Mystic to join us for a few days. Back at the condo we had a light lunch and then Dave went in for his nap while the rest of us went to Celery Fields. We saw rabbit, mocking bird, red-winged blackbirds, grackles, boat-tailed grackles, white ibis, glossy ibis, little green heron, anhinga, pie-billed grebe, blue-winged teal, mourning dove, great egret, osprey, common gallinule, coot, big red-eared sliders, tricolored heron, purple martins, little blue heron, cattle egret and turkey vultures. On the last boardwalk where we stopped we chatted with a couple. who had seen a roseate spoonbill fly in. We have not yet seen one one this trip. I am sorry we missed it.
We will go to The Cottage for dinner tonight and then watch the sunset from the beach and introduce Susanne to the Sunday night drumming entertainment
