Manatees
like to stay warm so they will find hot spots in water. Power plant discharge
warm water so manatees are frequently found in those areas. Lee County has a
park devoted to viewing the manatees around a power plant discharge.
We
enjoyed it and saw over 80 manatee in the area (we only saw 5 in the same
spot before this). The problem is that there were so many people coming to see
them. The parking lot was jammed on a Friday afternoon. It was hard to get
space at the fence to see the manatees. We laughed when one of us “it’s a zoo
here”. Yes, only manatees and people at this zoo, but a zoo none the less.
