12/2/19 drawdown tour. We saw the Spoonbills farther north near the 99 marker. Lots of turtles, gators and other birds were out sunning and feeding. One of the boils at Indian Bluff Springs was visable but the water is still too high for it to turn blue. The Plecostomus holes in the clay bank are abundant south of Indian Bluff. Cannon Springs was beautiful of course.
