My uncle and I went out on the Wacissa River this afternoon. We were hoping to find an owl. The owl was hooting and very close by but very busy nesting. We saw plenty of gators and a Black crowned night heron, an immature Blue heron among others. Notably, we saw two turtles that had been sliced in half by motorboats and were still surviving at least until now. Photographed below.
Yes the Sanguine Root condemns motorboats on the Wacissa.
On a lighter note, I was on my IPhone checking my email and texts as one does and my uncle asked if I was texting the owl. Oh yes indeed we are here ! Who Hoo Hoo and Hoo!! The owl texted (hooted actually) me back right away that she was busy with her nesting operations.
