Birds Underwater runs an excellent operation with covered boats excellent Captains that where always looking out for the safety of the manatees. Plus Hot coffee,cocoa and tea with donuts a totally fantastic dive company.

One of the few shots I got of manatees at Three Sisters Springs (Crystal River, Florida). The two French ladies immediately behind the manatee were always in my shots...and I have no idea how they managed that.
