March 19, 2008 - Manatees at Homosassa Springs SP

Homosassa Springs is known as a place to care for injured animals, especially manatees, and the manatees are the most famous.  You can see one large one out in the water here to the right of the tree trunk.

A telephoto view:

We went to the manatee feeding:

The ranger got in the water and gave them sweet potato snacks

Once he snacks were gone and the manatees headed out.
