Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge and Cape Canaveral National Seashore were our destinations for today. Both are just chock-full of animals and during our journeys today were spotted armadillos, alligators, manatees, javelinas, roseate spoonbills, herons, cranes, red=winged blackbirds, grackles, ibises (ibi?) and other birds we have not seen previously but were too slow to positively identify.
At Merritt Island, our federal access pass was again unleashed keeping us from having to pony up six bucks twice since we went into and out of the refuge twice. Today was a spectacular day for wildlife viewing and Peggy and I agreed this may have been one of our best on this road trip.
