This is the most elusive bird, we have been trying to get a decent picture for weeks. He was sitting near the top of a tall dead tree yesterday. Vic stopped the car and I walked up. (The diesel makes a racket.) He didn’t stay long but I did get some good shots before he took off. Yesterday at Viera Wetlands.

We saw the Sandhill Cranes today. We are hoping to see their offspring one of these days.

Victor thinks this gator looks like he’s wearing a toupee. Haha!

Victor gave me a huge box of Godiva, a rare treat for sure.

Viera Wetlands in Florida. We’ve seen some interesting wildlife lately. We learned that the white Ibis’s legs and beak turn bright red in breeding season. We’ve also been following the growth of the Gray heron’s chicks. There are several nests and they are not all on the same timetable.

Also at Viera Wetlands

We visited Viera Wetlands and took more pictures of the Gray Heron nest.

What a day we had! Leaving Viera Wetlands we drive through a new subdivision with large bodies of water alongside the road. This white pelican was by himself. (My picture)
