Look at how this Heron has twisted his neck. 
Birds
I took the first picture of a gray Heron with two white Heron scrunched down to the side and Victor took the pic of anhinga. We were at our favorite local wildlife sanctuary in Merritt Island FL.

I would love to hear from you

We watched while hundreds of white and gray Heron, anhinga, osprey and Ibis flew in to roost for the night. This scene plays out nightly behind some local businesses that have a long wooden porch with a table and chairs set up to enjoy the space. We talked to several of the people that work there and they were all friendly and invited us to use their chairs and enjoy the show. It was old news to them I guess, they all went home and left us to take all the pictures we wanted. This spot is only 20 minutes from our campground.

Family meet up
I’m so excited about seeing some close family in a couple of weeks! My sister and her husband have sold their house in NY and are renting a house in Sarasota? Bradenton? while they house hunt. My daughter Holly and her husband Justin are going to Tampa for a wedding in two weeks. We are all getting together for lunch in Tampa Dec 16th. I’m very very excited to see them all! Can’t wait!
I’m happier than I look lol
