This is the second, and last, set. Again, these all are taken at the Merritt Island Wildlife Refuge, at Cape Canaveral. Thanks for taking the time to look.

As a Floridian I appreciate seeing Roseate Spoonbills. You can't beat their color. What is interesting is the immature tricolored heron and an immature white ibis molting into it's adult plumage. You even captured a lone snowy egret in one frame. I know you had a great trip. It's hard to beat this state for birding and photography.

Thanks, Lynn-The Merritt Island Refuge is a great place hang out-there's so much diversity of wildlife.

Captivating series of images. My pick of the lot is #3. Just great lighting and I love the reflections.

Thanks, mr. bell-the reflections are a result of getting out early, before the sea breeze starts up. I think they add to the pix, and often-times, they'll reveal details that you don't see straight away.
