After bidding Brenda and Barry good-bye (our reunion story is in the previous footprint), we headed over to the Wakodahatchee Wetlands to see some feathered friends.

You got a much better shot of the spoonbill than I did. Was the 2nd one nearby? I see you saw a colorful iguana versus our black one. I saw the glossy ibis too (lovely photos) but ignored them since we have so many here at our pond this year). I missed the blue heron chicks! Could the photo I showed you with the fluffy head have been a chick instead of a tri-colored heron? though I suppose he wouldn't have been alone and on land.....Did your mother enjoy the birds? Were you able to park there or did you have to walk? Brenda
Two to TravelThat fluffy guy that you showed me wasn’t a chick. After seeing the glossy ibis, I thought it might have been that, instead of a tricolored, but you would have recognized it since they are plentiful at your pond. (Might yours have been a reddish egret? Or possibly a green heron? I did see a photo of the latter on the web with fluffy head feathers.). The great blue and the chick were in one of the trees by the first gazebo. We did manage to park. I walked in while mom and Mui waited a few minutes to drive in and park. Mom and Mui walked around on their own and he said she enjoyed the birds ... I went off on my own to do the full loop and take photos.
Love the spoonbills. The woodstork is the strangest looking bird.
