Nice pics Vic, er er Doug.
I had the same idea, especially the late start, which is actually early for me.
But my plan was for the very beautiful Blue Cypress lake west of Vero Beach which as you know is where the St Johns begins.
The Cypress trees grow well out into the water pretty much all way around the lake, and my plan was to get into the shade they provide.
However Blue Cypress is also a well known sanctuary for Ospreys, there are no doubt hundreds of nests and birds in those Cypress trees around the lake, and they now have young ones living in them. So i was getting yelled at by the nervous big birds every time i got even close.
But i did have a nice ride around the perimeter of the entire lake watching them catch a few, before i loaded up and headed home.
