16/01: More Birds

Posted by: The Agnew Family
The good news is after today there will be a slight break from birds, the bad news today there's lots and lots of birds.
Ed read an article about good birding spots near Naples. One of them was J.N. "Ding" Darling National Wildlife Refuge on Sanibel Island. So, in his quest of bird photos we set off to "Ding" Darling. Ed forgot it is Martin Luther King Day so the roads and the park were busier than expected. The good part was the park was free as it is a national holiday.
It was fun to watch the different birds interacting. I think the different methods of feeding complemented each other.
Peek-a-boo I see you.
Not sure what family this juvenile belongs to, but he's cute.
A flock of pelicans hanging out on the beach.
Here we come!!!
Almost down.
Mottled Ducks.
Little Blue Heron looking for lunch.
Yellow Legs, not sure if it's Lesser or Greater.
Even Snowy Egrets have a "bad hair day".
We drove to the end of Sanibel Island and walk out to have a look at the beach.
