Birds at Homosassa Springs Wildlife Park

I saw lots of birds during my visit to Homosassa Springs Wildlife Park in January. Kingfishers were still hanging around (they are only here in the winter). This one was posing nicely for me although this shot was heavily cropped.

A few migrating birds passing through included a redstart and a blue headed vireo.

I usually see pileated woodpeckers when I’m here.

Ibis in a dead snag.

A typical Florida scene, a great blue heron on a fallen tree.

Wild night herons hang out here.

A few of the permanent residents include roseate spoonbills and a rare white morph great blue heron.

Wood ducks nest along the river here and occasionally they hang out in the park.

The flamingos were sleeping.

Not a bird but a red fox eating some yummy vegetables for breakfast.

    Some wonderful birds there. The Belted Kingfisher is my favourite. I was fortunate enough to see one here in the UK a few years ago (very rare here).

    These shots are really very beautiful. Good catch of such wonderful flying critters…as well as Ms. Fox.

    Dit zijn werkelijk schitterende foto’s van een varia aan prachtige vogels. De ijsvogel is ook een geweldige mooie foto. In Nederland kennen we alleen witte lepelaars en bij jou zie ik roze. Ik zie ook een aantal hele mooie en verschillende reigers. Dit lijkt me ook een fantastische plek waar je geweest bent.
    Groetjes, Helma
