Wild Manatee Cams at Blue Spring State Park
Support for the webcams was made possible by a donation to Save the Manatee Club as a memorial gift in honor of the late Mrs. Norma Norton, a Florida resident who cared deeply for manatees. "Mrs. Norton's love for manatees will inspire so many people from all walks of life through Internet and webcam technology. People everywhere will get to know manatees and come to love them, as Mrs. Norton did," said Patrick Rose, Executive Director of the Club. |

Latest Manatee Update: April 1, 2013
Today we had a river temp of 67.8° F. The park staff counted nine manatees by the river. I counted three. They were S185/12 and Gator, who came to visit me when I launched the canoe, and Jessica who was up the run under the trees. I think this is the end of the season. The air temperature as I left Orange City was 83° F.
