Sexy anhinga ready for some fun.
Guarding the nest.
A very young little blue heron. Soon he will lose all of those white feathers and will be all blue.
During mating season, the snowy egrets have a pink beak and orange feet.
What a beautiful face.
Great egret’s gotta itch.
Showing off for the ladies.
A male anhinga showing off.
A cormorant sleeping on the nest. He was high in the tree next to the observation tower. On the top level, I was face to face with the nest.

Faces from my trip to Gatorland in Orlando to see the baby birds. The adult birds all have their mating feathers on. Lots of colors during nesting season.
The world is certainly amazing when you stop to take a close look…Wonderful photos.
Beautiful birds and gorgeous photography!
Happy Week to you,
