Fun neighbors Eileen. I always love how the Anhingas like to spread out their wings to dry.
Such lovely birds you have in your area! Beautiful shots!
You certainly have seen a lot of birds on your trip and that shot of the Osprey is wonderful Eileen Thanks for hosting and have a wonderful weekend
I think the Purple Gallinule is like our Pukeko. Iridescent feathers, a strutting walk, and it likes the swampy areas. What a huge variety you see.
Wonderful photos of ducks and birds. It a joy to feed these ducks and birds. Great shot of the one with spread out wings. Have a beautiful weekend!
Beautiful images! Have a lovely day!
Sp4eading it's wings - beautiful! Thanks for hosting, Eileen!
Nice set of birds. Love the great image of the Osprey :)

Beautiful photos! -Marci @ Stone Cottage Adventures
You capture so many birds! Good job!
Have a great time in Florida Eileen. Seems like you escaped the big storm so now settle down and enjoy some of that sunshine. What a special bird the Osprey, and to see one so close.
Thanks for allowing me to join in today.
I see you're being kind to our web-footed friends, and they've rewarded you with photo opportunities.
Hurrah!

Love the Osprey. Never see them here although they do get them on the mainland.
Hello,
Wonderful photos, and they are all so beautiful! The White Ibis is so pretty.
Happy Weekend!

Good morning Eileen what fun they all seem to be having, and even one showing off such a wide wingspan! Enjoy your weekend and the upcoming Halloween fun time!
Enjoy your time in Florida, Eileen! I love this series, beautiful photos and birds. I could spend all day by the water sitting and appreciating the beauty. Thank you so much for sharing. :)
Are you now living in Florida? Or just for the winter season?
Loved the birds of the 'hood today.
Lovely selection of shots, Eileen!
Beautiful birds and fantastic your photos, Eileen !!
Happy weekend !
All the other snowbirds will be joining you soon, Eileen!
Such beautiful photos, Eileen, both of the birds and the surroundings. I especially like the second one; is it an egret or a white ibis?
Happy weekend,
Poppy
Amazing photos - thank you and keep 'em coming
I am so glad (and a tad envious) that you are finding so many birds already around your new winter home. hope we'll be as fortunate when we get there in December.
My favorite is number two. Looks like he's out for a walk. : )
I'd never get anything done looking at the view and the birds! The Whistling Ducks are ducks I admire from afar, I love their expressions!
I wonder just what all Ihave missed! I bet a lot...you always have great photos.
Wonderful photos, Eileen! I love seeing all the wildlife, especially the ones I've never seen before. I hope to join in one of these days if I ever get my "ducks" in a row. Take care and have a nice Sunday!
That's quite a variety of shots!
We birders appreciate your participation this weekend at I'd Rather B Birdin'!!! Thanks for sharing this Eileen!!!
A nice variety there. We have Ospreys in Australia too although they are fairly rare around Victoria where I live.
I didn't realize you were in Lakeland - a beautiful area. Love seeing your critters! Especially the one walking the planks!
wonderful photos!
Hi Eileen. It is Sunday, and I'm running behind. So glad I came by here to see your wonderful duck photos! Gosh, what a variety. I especially like the one sitting on the post alone. Have a good week.
