What a sweet spot to go birding. I especially like to visit this area during the summer time - the area being surrounded by water and shaded by the trees always makes it feel at least 10 degrees cooler and that, my friend, is a great bonus in the Florida summer heat.
First sightings were in the parking lot - many more warblers were seen zipping about the tree tops - a bit fast for me to capture. |
A Tuffed Titmouse with a companion. |
The Carolina Wren was singing its best tune. |
A few Great Egret were seen across the way - nesting in the trees. |
Beautiful fauna grows in the shady waterways. |
Doesn't that look appealing? And, no John, I wasn't talking about you. :) |
The resident Black-crowned Night Heron in his blue suit. |
Those eyes, oh my! |
A Water Moccasin - well camouflaged. |
The Palm Warbler bid us farewell. |
