Robinson Preserve

After stained glass class we headed to Bradenton to purchase tickets for a Pirates game. There weren't any decent seats left for the games we considered going to and the parking at the park is poor. We decided to skip Pirates games there. So we headed for Robinson Preserve and paddle. We launched and found the entrance to the preserve through a short mangrove tunnel.


There was an area with more mangrove tunnels but we didn't feel we had time to explore and the tide was a little low and we were not sure how far we could go.

We reached an area that was blocked off for the Eagle nest so we had to return on the same route.

We did see this Imm White Ibis.

All in all a neat area but you need to insure the tide is in.
