Started out just south of Sunrise Highway where the river is dammed and heading south Through Wertheim National Wildlife Refuge. Minimum rental time was an hour and a half, but the nice guy running the place let me have 2 hours.
This was my very first time in a Kayak. I have been in Canoes but never a Kayak. It was very stable once you were seated, just getting in and out was a little new to me.
Big and small turtles near the bank, some about a foot across.
After going under the second bridge where many Swallow birds had their nests the river opened up into a large shallow like lake.
Caught a couple of Swans trying to get some sleep till I came along.
Got down to the leaning Osprey nest where the "F" on the map is and where I dropped my Canon camera in the water. So no more pictures on this #paddlewithme.
After I got back, had lunch then shot over to Riverhead and bought a new camera. This one is water and shock proof. Then went to Dick's and bought a Pelican Kayak on sale for $179.
#paddlewithme is a take off of ....
