Took a stroll along the boardwalk at Green Cay yesterday. Green Cay, Boynton Beach, FL and part of the Palm Beach water reclamation facility, overlooks 100 acres of constructed wetland and provides educational opportunities about this unique habitat. The wetland features 1.5 miles of elevated boardwalk featuring interpretive signs about the habitat. The Nature Center includes a lecture hall, gift shop, and live animals in an extensive exhibit room that highlights wetland attributes. The boardwalk encircles the entire wetlands.

Just a few of the critters we saw on a very warm clear, breezy day. Best in DL/DDL....Cheers

A fine set. I think that is a White Faced Ibis, though. Note the red eye.

Thanks Ken, appreciated. I went with 'Glossy' Ibis because the eyes are darker than the redder eye on the White, however, they're all 'glossy' to me.... Cheers

Thanks JD, it is a great place and the excellent boardwalk used by many just for their morning walks.
