Edisto Island, SC - Page 2

March 26 - March 29, 2007

This web page is dedicated to visitors from around the US, Canada, Nova Scotia & the SC Aquarium who unloaded & reloaded my collection gear daily during both visits while I had fractures. It also is dedicated to Dan Carter, Executive Director of the Chamber of Commerce, for his guidance regarding sites to photograph, to Piggly Wiggly staff who saved me steps, to firemen & a gentleman who unloaded & then reloaded my car with heavy buckets of ocean water & animals, & to the staff of Atwood Vacations, especially Courtney Druell.

The first charming site on Hwy. 174, on the way to Edisto Island


*Live Oak Canopy Trees with Spanish Moss on Botany Bay Road*

*More serenity on Botany Bay Road*	*Allen A.M.E. Church on Botany Bay Road*

*The "Mystery Tree" in the marsh at the junction of Hwy. 174 & Botany Bay Road.*	*Bottle Brush Bush at a home next to the Beach Access parking lot at Ebb Tide Street*

*Narrow houses built to comply with setback requirments*




*Photos taken on the South Edisto River end of Edisto Island where I found the most marine life*

Tricolored Heron	Brown Pelican

*Rather than being photos of a very plump pelican, these are photos of two pelicans sharing a piling.*

*Blue Crab*	*Laughing Gull*

*Photos taken from a condo overlooking the Edisto Marina*

*Kayaks at the marina*

*Directly opposite sunset, the sky over the marina mellowed with the colors cast skyward by the setting sun.*

*A Lightning Whelk*



*Sea Anemones*

*Purple Sea Urchins*

*The bridge across the North Edisto River*

*A fisherman patiently waiting for a bite*	*Success!*

Although not on Edisto Island, this abandoned building not far away on Hwy. 17 is a vestige of the past. A table and chairs are still visible through the window along with a sign outside with the word "Colonial" at the top. *Home*
