Birding at the end of the day brings a whole different outlook - and I was surprised to see so many birds together.....It's all good.
 |
| The Little Blue Heron - past its first year would be my guess. They begin life being totally white and in two years time become totally blue. I kind of like this white and blue streaking - it reminds me of a loafing kind of day with white t-shirt and faded blue jeans. |
 |
| I made my way to the tower and there I counted 120 White Ibis and within this bunch were a few surprises too. |
 |
| The sun's location, my position and the fact that this Anhinga was facing me - made for a different look all together. |
 |
| Different stages of the White Ibis - it starts with mostly brown and over the course of the first couple of years - more white feathers comes in until adulthood where the Ibis is all white. |
 |
| Look who's here, front and center! |
 |
| A Roseate Spoonbill. |
 |
| The sun sure provided a magical touch to the preserve. |
