Day 75...Gulf Birds


GULF BIRDS

Seagulls, Egrets, Pelicans, oh my.  Sandpipers and Herons, all flying by.  Everywhere you go on the beach or anywhere in Florida, there are so many birds, and so many different ones.  I love that the birds seem "exotic" compared to Minnesota.  Although I've seen a Loon floating on the ocean in March.  That's an odd sight for sure.

Below is the Snowy Egret.  She's praying she gets a bit of that live bait.


I love watching the Sandpipers chase the waves out while they pick for fresh crustaceans and then run away as the waves come back.


This Pelican was waiting for a fisherman to discard the trimmings of the fish he was fileting.  Isn't he cute?



And then the beautiful Great White Egret perched on her one leg taking a rest in the sun.
