Foggy Start to Saturday Morning

We were socked in with a very foggy morning on Saturday. By the time we’d gone about halfway down Wildlife Drive, it started clearing away. It made for some interesting photos at the beginning, though.

How can you pass up such cool spider webs to photograph?

The white pelicans are still very plentiful at Ding. Before we know it, they will be heading back north.

It’s fun to watch the white pelicans come in for a landing. They water ski to a stop on those big feet .

It’s always more fun to bathe with a friend!

I love it when I can catch a bird scratching during flight

I had taken my camera off the tripod and I was turning to leave, when I glanced back and saw this snowy egret land on the sandbar. As I raised my camera to take a quick shot, he decided to give a really good shake. Sorry for so many photos that follow below (and yes, there were even more), but I couldn’t choose only a couple.

Whew! All better!

Then, a quick stop at the Bailey Tract. We saw an anhinga and a couple of gators.
