Place Tagged Port of the Islands (25.958N -81.509W )
Background Length 319 cm, weight 1,085 lbs at time she was captured and tagged at Port of the Islands, a series of man-made canals at the north end of the Faka Union Canal (25.961N, -81.509W), which leads to the Faka Union Bay in Ten Thousand Islands.
Summer/Fall 2001 Recap Like Grace, Megan spent much of her time at the Cape Romano seagrass beds. She did travel briefly inshore, using the rivers between Palm Bay and Mud Bay. On one return visit to Port of the Islands, she used the area east of the Faka Union canal, which consists of a series of winding waterways and small bays that used to be part of the Fakahatchee River. In November and December she made several trips between Cape Romano and Port of the Islands. She spent the cold spell in early January at Port of the Islands and has since moved out to the outer islands near Whitehorse Key.
