Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge (NKP)

Scrub Jay

Still cannot go kayaking. No problem. Plenty of places to go to get my wildlife fix. This is Florida!!!!!!!

Florida Scrub Jay

On this trip I visited Haulover Canal trying to find a dolphin on Dolphin Cove. There was none. Then went to the Scrub Ridge Trail, where the little blue fellow was really picture friendly and cooperative. In some occasions looked more like my dog following me everywhere. So I took advantage...




Looking for lunch...

Got it!!!!!!!!!!!!

Orlando Wetlands Park (NKP)

Sandhill Crane and Colts

The cuteness factor decided here and the Sandhill Crane family got the opening. My elbow is recovering fast but still have to take it easy. With the weather the way it is forecasted for this weekend did not want to go too far so to the OWP went. Had a blast!!!!!!!!!!
