WE HAVE MANATEES!!! [View all]
- In the St. Mary's River, where the Potomac River and Chesapeake Bay meet, a MANATEE was spotted feeding this afternoon!
Whole Dolphins have become commonplace and there's even a dolphin tracking site for the bay, it's pretty rare to get manatees this far north. But bay temps are like bathwater right now, and we will see a dense fog overnight from those bay waters being so warm!
This is cool, be careful out there on the bay these next couple of weekends as the wildlife is truly intense level of sheer numbers! This is when we see "roost rings" too, when millions of birds take flight in the morning sun for some breakfast and you can actually see them on the radar.... I'm hoping for a.good thick fog tomorrow to help me narrow down exact spots to see this from, if I dont go manatee chasing!
