Half way through our stay at Indian Creek in Fort Myers Beach, the eagles are continuing to build their nest and get ready for egg laying. To be continued....
We also have been going to many birding areas and have met a local Birder expert Tom, who has taken us to some unique places we would have never found on our own.
