St. John's River Airboat ride

 


Took an airboat ride (my first!!!) with Captain Mike along the St. John's River to shoot some bird pictures and also got these wonderful views of the Cyprus trees along the river. Had a great time and I must say those boats can really move. Up to 70mph and feels faster as you are so close to the water in an open chair. Got lots of shots of egrets and herons, ospreys and kingfishers. Some alligators up close as well. Hope to share some of those shots soon but I have a few thousand to go through after a few days of birding so it will take a while!
