Birds and Alligators
It's a beautiful day and perfect for a nice long walk. We grabbed a couple bottles of water, camera, binoculars, Zaph and we walked over to the largest lake in the park. There are a number of lakes in the park, several of which are joined together by trails, so over the course of the afternoon we visited four different lakes, seeing many different birds and lots of alligators.
Little Blue Heron
Common Moorhen --- the red shield on the beak is only seen during breeding season (February to September).
White Ibis
There's lots of American Coots in the ponds here. These guys are very vocal --- if you can't see them you're bound to hear them.
What is the alligator doing sitting in a field? Ed said he was watching Zaph and me walk by --- glad I didn't notice.
Tricolored Heron.
