While the island is closed, it is not without activity. Bush Key is the migratory location of many bird species. In many cases, Bush Key represents the only continental US breeding ground for many species.
We anchored close enough to get a good view of the birds in action. And they were always in action – morning, noon and night they would be flying around the island. Do they ever sleep?
One day we were fortunate enough to have a brown noddy land on the bow of the boat and pose for a photo for us. The brown noddy pictured is one of about 4500 who nest on Bush Key each year.
