    Harris said that Mike Mac almost hit a wild boar on Merritt Island.

    We saw these two that might be related along the road the day before! Photo by Nan, brakes by Bob!

    Okay, who's been taking pictures of me without my permission. Darn papparazzi!!

    :) 

    A little saturation and maybe pulling down the curves for a little contrast might help that shot Bob - maybe (Do NOT take my advice as gospel though. There are plenty here who can give you MUCH better advice on post-processing).

    Hi Mike,

    As near as I can tell we saw these two little ones about the same place as you saw the big one. It was just west of the exit from Blackpoint Drive heading west back toward the RR tracks and the Osprey nest.

    Do you think yours was the parent of these two? Lurking nearby?
