My First Video




This is now my very first video. Don't expect to much, it's not perfect at all, there is no choreography or even a script...and I'm not a film star at all!!! :)) but I'll be better, I promise you....LOL... enjoy the view of the water, listen to the rolling waves on a place that really looks like paradise!

Patients at the Turtle Hospital in Port Aransas

This is the covered pavilion with 3 pools, in every one were one or two turtles swimming around, waiting for their release back to the sea


Turtles are very curious animals :)


Upstairs in the same building we got the chance to see some of these poor injured animals. Most of them were sleeping in small plastic pools, getting medicated and observed from the people working here


The shell of this big turtle was all over grown with sea grass - it was a very sad sight


A little baby turtle in a small plastic bucket with water


A poor little baby with only two legs was trying to do some swimming moves


This beautiful big turtle had a cut off leg in the back


There were also other cute little patients - like this seagull with a broken wing


Or this majestic looking sea hawk! He will be released pretty soon.


And this pretty great blue Heron bird was NOT a patient from the hospital, he just showed up and was posing for my camera


Every one of us can become a "Friend of the ARK" - if you are interested to do voluntary work there, click in the link and donate money or donate your time!


Hi my friends,

this was our last day here on this beautiful "Mustang -Island" and in Port Aransas. Tomorrow we will go towards San Antonio and into the "Hill Country". Stay tuned with me!
