My brother and I took a drive to Cameron Prairie today. Not many birds but we did get a few shots in. Lots of gators out but I didn't take gator photos. 1) Eastern Kingbird. 2) Moorhen/ Gallinule 3)Crested Caracara.
Nice set of images Ken

Looks like a good day, Ken and hope you had fun... but gotta ask: Was the Caracara's name, "Alfalfa"? It sure has a distinctive crest!

You had a good day. Moorhen, not Gallinule. They are very different. All are nice photos!

Three excellent shots, Ken. It was a successful outing.
We didn't see the usual amount of birds, Carol. Very few herons and egrets. At least we got some unusual species, though.

Nice selection Ken, all unfamiliar to my untrained eyes - sure love the batch of red on #2!
Thanks, Joe. Their relative, the Purple Gallinule, is even more striking. I didn't get any shots of them, though.
