Periscope DOWN: Cow & Calf

Description:
During manatee season, which runs from sometime in November until March or April, the sanctuary of Blue Springs is strictly off limits. Blue Springs reopened in late March this year, but doesn't allow any swimming when manatees are present.Luckily, the run is open for canoes and kayaks in the mornings, and we spotted this cow and calf towards the middle of the run first thing in the morning.I think these turned out pretty good, considering how I got them, dipping the camera over the side.Blue Springs State ParkOrange City, Volusia County Florida, USA Olympus OM-D E-M514-42mm II LensPT-EP08 Underwater Housing, PPO-EP01 Lens Port & 14-42mm Zoom Gear
