A Perfect Day

It was time to go birding again so Ed, Jean, Zaph and I piled into the truck and drove to Estero Llanno Grande State Park. The day was perfect for birding --- the sun was shining, there was a gentle breeze and it was in the mid 70's.


I think these are House Sparrows, they were very entertaining today.


A White-faced Ibis. This picture really shows the irisescent colour of his wings.


These turtles were sunny themselves beside a log that has a small alligator on it. You have to look closely to find the alligator.


A Belted Kingfisher.


This Cormarant was drying his wings.


We saw several Vermillion Flycatchers today. This one put on a nice show for us.


We watched this Sora having lunch while we were enjoying our PB&J sandwhiches.


This White-faced Ibis and White Ibis were hanging out together.

A Malacite butterfly. There were several of these colourful butterflies hanging around this bush.
