There was a manatee right in front of the fishing pier. He stayed in the same spot for a while before moving on. They usually swim past quickly the few times I’ve seen one here. As I leaned over to take a picture, he stuck his nose up for air.
Dolphins were swimming all around the pier.
The water was full of little jellyfish. I haven’t seen the water filled with jellyfish here before like this. They were floating far out at the end of the fishing pier so I don’t think they were bothering the people swimming close to shore.
Someone caught a fish.
The cormorants were diving under and getting fish. They seemed to be catching more that the fishermen on the pier.
It was a busy morning under the water around the fishing pier at Fort Desoto.
Great series of your Florida animals. I love the cute manatees and the dolphins. Cool capture of the jellyfish. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Have a happy weekend!
Gorgeous photos, such fun…Love the dolphin shots.

Lovely shots, Dina. So that’s a mermaid, right?!
