I'm sorry, I know I'm supposed to be looking at what's IN the water, but the clear, beautiful color of the water is completely and absolutely distracting to me. Man, if only I could go swimming! *sigh*
Wow, at first glance I thought you have been down at Roundrock taking pix while I was swimming, but then I realized the water was too clear. Must be Wayne.
roger, this is a wild manatee who swam up to a riverside park where captive manatees with injuries are kept and rehabilitated.they have a daily feed the 'tee show and carrots are used.
Deb, Usually seen as a huge swirl ... not very showy like the goofy dolphin clan.
Hoss, Nice mammals. Catatees purr.
Pablo, As much as you grasswhip RR, I pictured you as a lean, mean, brush taming machine.

Ok, that was my first laugh of the day... really wasn't expecting that one! :)
Don't see how anybody could mistake that for a mermaid...
I don't know. If one had been on a ship with dozens of smelly, dirty men for months, this might be a vision of beauty.
Nice Shot!!!
I feel a certain kinship to those critters. We have the same basic body shape and I try to avoid getting gauged whenever I surface!
;-)

Laura,
Your comment saved me. I had about 2 seconds to post this morn.
Rurality,
I believe sailing causes myopia...
Mark,
Welcome! It would take that ... and the effects of scurvy and dehydration to see this as a womanatee.
Mrs. S,
This is a spring fed river and just one of many in FL. Our rivers are either dark brown or clear.
Nice manatee. I think I may have seen one once boating on the St. Johns River, but that was so long ago!
Is this a pet? Does it purr?
Anyway, nice fish. (Are manatees fish? Maybe, "nice mammals.")

Mmmmmmm...Manatee steaks! Great on grill.
Kevin,
Don't forget to sharpen your prop before going Manatee hunting...it's important to tenderize the meat first.
(somewhere, a peta member just had a stroke)
Are you in country?
I have a special Stainless Steel prop made by Vegimatic. It slices, dices and Juliennes, perfect for a Manatee Kabob.
Yes, still in Ft. Sill, Ok. I'll be in town 6 Sep. I'll look for Mrs. FC at the UF-UCF game. I leave for dessert around 20 Sep.
