This will be the final post of the old birders trip to Fort Myers beach and surrounding areas.For two "old" people we sure packed alot of spots into 2 and a half days and did a crazy amount of driving (some of it in circles) it is hard to adjust to the west coast after living on the east for so long! This post will include sunrise and sunset on Sanibel Island, Lakes Park in Fort Myers Beach the road to Estero, Babcock Webb Nature Center and who knows what else, just a wrap up of a fun and rewarding birding trip. Enjoy - we did...posted by cindy pics by both old birders
