Elizabetha Following the Florida Keys Route

Elizabetha continued on her way south by following the natural leading line through the Florida Keys. She passed over (or close to) the Curry Hammock Grassy Key count site founded several years ago by Casey Lott.

She roosted last night on a small forested key called Cook Island about 1,100 meters (1,200 yards) west of the end of Long Beach Drive. There is no road or bridge to this island. She was not far from the main highway going to Key West and was approximately 45 km (28 miles)west of the count site.
