She decided to go around and give the group of rays the right of way (sarcasm). The Cownose Rays were swimming just a few feet from the beach going parallel to the shore. This was near Clearwater, Florida.

Manatees grazing on mangroves in Tampa Bay. Manatees don't just eat seagrass, they eat any vegetation they can reach. There was a large grass bed where I filmed this. The manatees were eating mangroves because they wanted to not because they had to.

Manatees migrating past an island in the waterway near Clearwater, Florida. Not all manatees choose to migrate, most of the ones that do use the intracoastal waterway.

Large Great Hammerhead Shark swimming close to shore by Clearwater, Florida. Great Hammerhead sharks sometimes swim sideways so their tall dorsal fin acts as a foil providing lift so they can use less energy to swim.

People at the beach today treated to a manatee swimming right past them in the gulf near St Petersburg, Florida. Lots of mothers out there getting an early start on mother's day weekend.

Manatees swimming through the waterway in St Petersburg, Florida today. The ICW (intracoastal waterway) goes almost all the way around Florida and is a great place to see manatees from April-November.

Snort! A manatee snorting. Manatees usually surface for air quietly, but the males often snort when they surface, especially during mating season. It often startles kayakers and other people that aren't expecting to hear it.

Capturing a video of a dolphin jumping is easy compared to capturing that awesome moment when a Spotted Eagle Ray comes flying out of the water.

Kid unknowingly dives underwater as a manatee was swimming up to them at the beach on Mother's Day. Dad saw it at the last minute & clearly knew what it was. He did a great job at calming the kids down & fully appreciating the moment.

While going through my older videos I realized I captured video of what I think is the same person 12 months apart. The shirt's a little different, but it's the same red hat with a white spot. The manatees were just mating, not trying to attack him.
