We are happy to leave the marshland and salt flats behind. There was not much wildlife in there. We are just outside of Myrtle Beach and the scenery has improved greatly. There are trees although no more palm trees. We are back among the cypress, slash pines and various deciduous trees in their spring colour.
We are anchored in Enterprise Oxbow (N33 39.9 and W79 4.3) on the Waccamaw River, still in South Carolina.

We saw lots of dolphins today and we were surprised to see an alligator this far north. The osprey are back as well as eagles and even an American swallow-tailed kite. I did see a Willet yesterday but the bird life were few and far between.
The weather is supposed to get wetter and cool down. It is 90 degrees here today. We have reservations for Osprey Marina in Myrtle Beach. The rate is really good and the fuel price id the lowest around. We will most likely stay a week while we rendez-vous with Bruce and Anne, our friends from Belleville.
