Ill try to do a nice assortment - one downside to this location is that you come home with many hundred of shots - I think on this day I hit around 1800. which still left me with a huge file full of decent shots after culling all but the best. Enjoy and let me know what you think.... And I am always looking for great locations in Central Florida (the closer to St Petersburg the better of course... Enjoy!

a lot of fishing going on that morning...

I got a fair number as this Great Blue Heron worked out the best angle to get this decent sized Pleco down.

This big girl was on the side of the trail with a suitor on the other side... definitely a no pass zone

unfortunately this Glossy Ibis did not get into the right position or light just right to get all of the iridescence on their body feathers

Normally a fair number of Black headed Vultures, this morning a number of Turkey Vultures pearched overlooking on of the trails so got a few very nice shots.

always a sucker for nice Wood Stork Photos - they have so much character

There were a few Purple Galinules around that morning but rarely giving me good angles close enough to do any good

Granted Ospreys are not hard to find almost anywhere (especially Florida) but occasionally you get a shot you dig, as nice a pose as this is its the rear talons I found expressive
