#Manatee

Years ago there was a website called "Calming Manatee" that showed a random picture of a #manatee every time it loaded with a soothing message on it.

I loved that website. I miss that website. So today I made my own. It's pretty rough (CSS best practices are always changing!), and it doesn't (yet?) have the soothing phrases, but for me, the manatee itself was the main purveyor of #calm. So enjoy. Bug reports and feature requests welcome.

My mandriltee for #MerMay! Some believe that the mandriltee is imaginary. Who am I to say?

Though it appears to be rotund, short-armed mermaid with strange facial markings, the mandriltee is neither fish nor primate and certainly not the composite creature of myth. Their name, however, is inspired by their unlikely ressemblance to the mandrill, and they are of the order Sirenia (which 🧵

Happy Manatee Appreciation Day! Love these goofy lil guys :3

The last Wednesday in March is !

There are only four remaining species in the Sirenia order, and all are endangered. Their long reproductive cycles and loss of habitat have pushed them to the brink of extinction, but efforts are being made to bolster their numbers.

Two things:

1. Tonight's watercolor creature from the book is a manatee!!! 💙

2. I'm super impressed with this Pentel Neo-Sable pointed round brush (size "18") for use with watercolor. Great load capacity (brush can hold water) and excellent sharp point for an *extremely* reasonable price. (Got mine for just USD 6.75 on JetPens.) Also like the squared ends to keep it from rolling off the table. 💜

A friend just sent this photo of a #manatee in Mt Dora lake, not one known for them. Apparently it just scared away a gator.

Much better than the usual grey pictures of blobs or nostrils, this manatee came right up to the dock where they were standing. Grey, blobby and adorable, just under the water. Sea cows. 

I imagine people have been feeding it

**Alt Text:** The image captures an underwater scene at Burger's Zoo Mangrove featuring a manatee peacefully munching on a large bunch of leafy greens. The manatee, with its robust body and gentle demeanor, is surrounded by an assortment of fish, each varying in size and color. The water is crystal clear, providing an unobstructed view of the manatee's body and its surrounding environment. The manatee's head is partly hidden by the leafy greens it is devouring, emphasizing its natural behavior in its habitat. The fish appear to be swimming leisurely around the manatee, highlighting the harmonious interaction between different aquatic species in this vibrant ecosystem. The image beautifully showcases the serene and interconnected underwater world at Burger's Zoo Mangrove.

A couple of weeks ago #USFWS proposed that the Antillean manatee (as seen in #PuertoRico) be added to the #endangeredSpecies list, but not the #Florida #manatee. The comment period is open until March 17. 🔗 federalregister.gov/documents/

Up, close and personal vol 5

I took this picture of a manatee ten years ago (geeeeez) at Crystal River. It was for a film about Wildlife and Humans interactions. Three Sisters Spring was still open and the US Wildlife and Fish Service had issued me a permit authorizing me to go down to the bottom in apnea. I guess it's forbidden now and I think Three Sisters is close now to protect the manatees ( who are in danger and adorable by the way).

How I took this photo ? For sure, in holding my breath :-) Panasonic GH5 Olympus 8 mm fisheye 1/60e f5,6 Iso500 Shutter priority Raw Isotta Underwater Housing.

It's a photo of a manatee surrounded by ray of lights in Three Sisters spring. He's looking straight to the photographer. The water is green and turquoise.
