More Pink Birds

It’s been a while since I’ve posted photos and I’ve missed it so much! We had a chance to go through Ding this weekend, and as usual for a summer morning, we were treated to Roseate Spoonbills along with some other birds.

The reddish egret below looks like he is on a mission to find breakfast.

Success!!

The caption for the next photo would be, “Ok, all of you photographers can get ready, because we are heading out.”

But, this guy can’t go until he has a bath!

Seriously, Dude, it’ll take a lot of work to get all that off!

These two had a bit of a dust up, but it was short lived.

Working on it!

Ok. Heads up everyone. I’m your traffic director today. Be ready for takeoff when I point to you.

Me first . . . I’m outta here!

Meanwhile . . . still working on it

Still working it . . .

This belted kingfisher was also looking for breakfast. Notice the little white spot in front of the eye.

The belted kingfisher came in front of all the photographers and hovered, looking for fish in the water below. See the white dot that looks like the kingfisher’s eye? With the mohawk hairdo and those white spots, it gives the kingfisher a spooky look.

We made a quick stop to walk along the beach. It was a very hot and humid day with the clouds building up early.

Lots of turtle nests in a row!
