Watery Wednesday - No Oil


A sea anemone in the Gulf of Mexico washes onto S. Lido Key beach.  The water, thankfully, is still pristine.  The week prior to the Deep Horizon oil well being capped, NOAA predicted there was less than a 1% chance of oil hitting Sarasota.  Let's hope that's true!  Click here to see more Watery Wednesday photos from around the world.

Watery Wednesday: No Oil

This 11-year-old boy was visiting S. Lido Park beach with his family from Bradenton, just north of Sarasota.  He was absolutely captivated with this seashell.   As it turns out, a large crab was living inside it.  His mother told me he loves seashells and spends most of the time at the beach searching for them.  Once he discovered this shell was someone's home, he gently placed it back in the bay, which is still oil free.  To see more Watery Wednesday captures from around the world click here.
