Golden Pelican

I had gone out to get some shots of the sunset and it was a little early so I decided to walk over by Shrimpers and get some…

Dog Day Afternoon

It looks like a tough life for these dogs! I’m guessing they are pampared day and night. Florida is extremely dog friendly. There are tons of small dogs…
