2009 Snap & Parting Shots

A Great Egret uses a slight puff of wind to touch down at Tigertail Beach on Marco Island in anticipation of an early morning snack. The bird, close to extinction around 1900 because its plumes fetched good money, recovered in numbers and is the symbol of the Audubon Society. The Great Egret loves fish, but also settles for crustaceans, frogs, salamanders, snakes, and aquatic insects. It likes to winter, too, in the south.

  • Bringing to mind the TV program Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader (except that these are second grade students) Gianna Rose pours colored vinegar through a hole in a coffee filter onto baking soda to simulate a volcanic eruption. Looking on is Mark English. The science experiment, which began with discussions about plate tectonics, took place at Tommie Barfield Elementary School in Ms. Cheryl Reinke's class.

  • Reaffirming that Marco Island is basically more about water than land, this aerial view shows the Marco River leading to the Judge S.S. Jolley Bridge, with Olde Marco in the foreground and the northern part of the city to the rear. The photo was taken on a clear winter morning during a flight courtesy of pilot Scott Pransky.
  • Oblivious of anything but the moment at hand, Judge Jim Lyng and his wife, Gigi, dance at a recent Marco Thursday gathering held at the Esplanade on Marco Island. The monthly Thursday gatherings are sponsored by the Marco Eagle, as well as Vergina and Bayview restaurants.
  • Tim Pegram of Marco Island cruises the streets on his Trikke, a fitness machine he said is similar to skiing in technique. The machine, which he spotted and bought on a Web site, is propelled by shifting the hips and legs as well as turning the front wheel.

  • Rat race, what rat race? That might be the thoughts of these two beachgoers as they relax on the sand of Marco Island's beach with the Gulfview condominium in the background.

  • In this case, the hug comes from the little ones to the big one. The reason Julie Novembre and her siblings are so delighted is because Kathy Friday had a big hand in securing the Novembre family a home of their own through the ongoing work of Habitat for Humanity. The organization helps poor families secure their own houses, but one of the conditions is that the stronger members of the new household put 'equity sweat' into its construction. That part can be explained to the young Novembres at a later stage - right now they're not expected to do anything at all, just enjoy the pleasure of having their own home.
  • Ann Dilbone walks past what was once a doorway into her great-great-grandfather's vacation home on the island originally named for him, Horr's Island.

The crumbling structure recently got an assessment from Matt Betz, an archaeologist with the Archaeological and Historical Conservancy.

  • A young climber tackles a wall during a recent fun day organized by the Marco Island Marriott Resort to accommodate some of its younger guests.

  • Understandably, the name of this South American butterfly is the owl butterfly, but there is conjecture as to whether the 'eye' is intended to scare off predators such as small birds looking for a meal. Biologists say the underwing indeed resembles the head of an owl if the butterfly presents itself head down, but point out that the position in which the owl-like appearance occurs is not generally assumed by the butterfly in life. In their resting position, Caligo butterflies settle down with closed wings like most butterflies, showing only one of the eyespots, and do not look owl-like. The photo was taken by Marco magazine editor B.J. King on a recent visit to Costa Rica.
