Orlando Wetlands Park - Updated

Short Tailed Hawk

Tomorrow is Mother's Day and mine came last night to spend a few days with us. So there was no way I was going to spend the day kayaking with Mom at home. But did take a short walk at Orlando Wetlands Park while Mom and Wifey went shopping. For the first time saw the bird in the opening pic, a Short Tailed Hawk. First thought it was an Osprey, because the colors but did look different. Peregrine Falcon? Looked for it when came back home...Short Tailed Hawk. Heck yeah!!! Anyways...it was a short walk and there are not too many pics to share. Non kayaking post so, straight to to the pics we go...
