“It’s morning, and finally cool after weeks under a sweltering heat wave. Michael Ferrara, Audubon’s Carrabelle shorebird biologist, and I watch a thunderstorm and its deep blue clouds slide by just east of us, far enough away to avoid rain but close enough to revel in the dramatic skyline. Alligator Point in the Florida Panhandle is stunning: bright white sand contrasting with the green and gold of sea oats and meadows of coastal grasses, bordered on one side by Alligator Harbor and the Gulf of Mexico on the other. And birds. So many birds.”
