What the heck, it is yet another of those special places you seem to find so easily. The tanager is superb - so colourful, and then ll those herons and egrets.

I'...Oh, my goodness, you have been having fun!!! I've just had a very enjoyable time going through all your holiday posts and what a holiday it was! You saw so many beautiful birds. I'm really glad you explained the origin of the name Ding Darling, I had seen it mentioned on a blog once before but there was no explanation and it has always intrigued me. I have never heard of the cartoonist but will look him up.<br /><br />It was nice to get an idea of just how large the Great Egret is in the first photo after the mosaic. They are relatively new visitors to the UK and I have yet to see one. Well done on the Swallow-tailed Kite, I don't think I had ever heard of that one. The Summer Tanager is beautiful, such a lovely colour!<br /><br />Well done too on the Wood Storks, it's always so exciting to tick lifers. I also enjoyed seeing the beautiful Roseate Spoonbill, the juvenile White Ibis, the Brown Pelicans, the juvenile Ospreys, the Sandhill Crane surrounded by golf balls...great photo!...and the Alligator!! You will have so many memories from your holiday Eileen, amazing! :-)<br />ShySongbirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08148381873578585910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1264193705821192168.post-32639764824758455372013-04-23T07:33:09.165-04:002013-04-23T07:33:09.165-04:00Beauriful series!!
