An Anhinga in Fenny

Image
On the pathway surrounding Fenny spring, right next to the clubhouse, is a bird sanctuary.  First time shooting there with the cannon I managed to catch this Anhinga, and its mate, right after they had lunch. The Anhinga eats small fish that it catches by diving into the water, spearing them, then flips it to swallow whole.  Unlike most birds its feathers are not waterproof, since they need to dive to catch their prey.  As a result, they always find a sunny perch and spread their wings to dry out after eating.  

Fenny

The Villages is enormous, sixty thousand or so 55+ ranch homes at the moment, they have approval for and are building another sixty-five thousand homes.   Fenny is the very southern tip of the Villages and I'm near the end of Fenny, so it's a forty minute drive if I wanted to go all the way to the north end of the villages.

Where in Fenny

Image
My place (the orange dot) is a very short walk to the large rec center and the Fenny Grill, as well as the Fenny Springs walking trail, the nature preserve, two solid golf courses.   The smaller Spanish Moss rec center has a lapping pool and a walking trail with outdoor exercise equipment.

Clubhouse

Image
The main clubhouse and the restaurant is a short walk.   It's supported by a required amenities fee and is staffed during the day.
