Florida, 2015

What a lovely time we had today as we joined with some of our Cobourg friends for lunch in Lakeland!

The Bucks, the Carletons, the Ebbers, and the Lintons (in alphabetical order!) in Cracker Barrel.

And back at Dick and Marilyn's lovely home for dessert.

So nice to sit outside in the sun!  It was a little cool in the shade, but lovely in the sun. 

One of the beautiful  flowers at the Ebbers' home.

Yesterday, we went for our first of many (I hope) bike rides of the season.  Saw this lovely Little Blue Heron doing some fishing.

And this Great Egret (AKA American Egret)  patiently waiting for his food.  

I'm never sure how they can see the little fish swimming under the "duck weed" that floats on the surface, but they do! This Great Blue Heron did!

This little fellow, about 5 feet long, was quite happy to lie in the grass beside the path and let lots of people take his picture.  About a half hour later, when we came back past, he was still there, but in a different pose, so I guess he was alive!

And this baby, only about 3 feet long, was quite happy to pose for us as well.  We have seen bigger iguanas in Fort Lauderdale!
