They
are naturally curious, particularly in adolescence, one sneaks up on me
from behind. The water visibility at this point was about a foot...
First underwater sightings nearer to the spring, where the fresh, flowing water helped to improve the visibility...
A mother and a newborn calf (only a day or two old)...
Miche drifts by...
Mother and calf again, they suckle from under the armpit...
No manatees in this shot, but it all looked a bit Star Trek transporter...
