Hey, we had sun****ne today! Weird.
Venice rookery is a fantastic place for bird photographers. You will
need a long lens though, but even just watching is great.
As usual Google is your friend and this is the first search result:

We'll probably be commuting mainly between Fort Myers and Sanibel but
maybe going further afield. Who knows?
Myakka Park, Fort deSoto and St. Pete's beach can be good too.
You're welcome,
Richard.
