Cape Coral

We drove down to Cape Coral to see Ann and Wendell Snell. Last December they bought a beautiful house with a huge swimming pool in Cape Coral and have since moved down. The area where they bought has a small owl that digs a burrow in the ground to raise their young (hence they are called the Burrowing Owl). They have 200 of the 400 remaining nesting pairs of owls. Ann and Wendell watch as they hatch their eggs and raise their young.










They also took us out to Sanibel Island and we toured through the "Ding" Darling Wildlife Refuge. It is loaded with all kinds of birds a few choice ones are shown below.
