Thanks Jan, I try to help...

Which PNW Endangered Species is in your mind today?

Best Always, Carol

PS - How can we *not* think about this incredible creature on Endangered Species Day?

Great story and photos Carol, they truly are a wonderful animal.

Have a great weekend.

I'm pleased & flattered..., but most of all it was a sincere outpouring of how I felt about Mr. Jacques Cousteau, his TV series when I was little, and the wonderful manatees.

A very cool & conservation-minded individual said nice things about my words and photos, check it out in his Twitter Feed:

That just made my Endangered Species Day!

Now maybe I can do something valuable to make the manatees' day?

Sincerely, Carol

Interesting backstory on my post! Note, even Jacques Cousteau missed the manatee at Crystal River in January '71 = "the weather was too warm..." (see article below)
