Wild on Sanibel

A Heron kind of day!

The island was blanketed in fog this morning, but it didn't stop any picture taking!  Lots of herons to photograph.  I had a great opportunity to photograph a Great Blue Heron in all the glory of its mating plumage.

My two favorite birds are the Great Blue Heron and the Roseate Spoonbill.  I took lots of photos of this gorgeous Great Blue Heron today!

Don't hate me because I'm beautiful . . . 

Little Blue Heron on the hunt

Although you don't really see any green, this is a Green Heron.  He ran by very fast, but I managed to catch one picture of him.

These two Ibis had a little dance party.

A Roseate Spoonbill made an appearance.

Didn't expect to see an alligator with all the fog, but there he was, waiting on the sun to come out!
