Successful trip through Ding

There were several Roseate Spoonbills and other birds on our drive through Ding yesterday.  It won't be long before the winter birds will return, the feathered ones and the human type!

Yeehaw!!

An Osprey flew in, took a quick bath, and then took off again.

We watched this Reddish Egret do his dance for quite a while.  They are so funny when they are fishing for food!

The next three pics of Reddish Egrets are all different birds.  You can see the transmitter on the back of the Reddish Egret in the second photo.

We almost always see a couple of Yellow-Crowned Night Herons on the drive.

And then back home to find this pretty Great White Egret in our backyard.
