STATE OF THE BAY More education, engagement and fresh water needed

IAN WILSON/Keys Weekly

JIM McCARTHY [email protected]

Captains Elizabeth Jolin and Xavier Figueredo know the Florida Bay quite well, having navigated one of the nicest coastal waters in the world for the past 20 years. With their love for the bay, the two are also very attuned to the issues and complexities from water flow and water control to the Central Everglades Restoration project (CERP). On June 6, I recently had the opportunity to hop on the boat with the two for an afternoon out on the bay to get a real understanding of the issues at hand. Joining me was photog- rapher Ian Wilson, who captured some amazing shots of our adventure. With a rookery full of beautiful birds, one of the trip’s highlights was the spotting of a juvenile bald eagle up in a nest. “It’s so exciting,” said Jolin, who moved to the Florida Keys after working and living in Washington, D.C. She ultimately got away from the hustle and bustle of the city life and found the waves and the ocean to be her joy and inspiration.
