"In all things of nature there is something of the marvelous." ~ Aristotle

As promised, I'm sharing some photos of two spots that we visited while my sister and brother-in-law were here. Bruce and I have been to these spots once before, but not in a couple of years. It was a perfect day for a visit!

The first spot is Wakodahatchee, and the second one is Green Cay. These two spots are within minutes of each other. There are a lot of photos, but I think that you will enjoy them!

American Alligator


Anhinga Chicks 
Wood Stork 
Great Blue Heron and Chick


Marsh Rabbit
Water Moccasins - there were actually three!

Egret



Anhinga - sometimes known as "snakebird"


????? 
Iguana- When we first saw it, it was running - like really running!














Red-Bellied Woodpecker

Purple Gallinule - gorgeous, gorgeous iridescent colors.

  1. I love your photos so much, Tracy. :-) But must admit that, having narrowly avoided being bitten by a poisonous brown snake this week, the photos of the water moccasins have me cringing. :-)

  2. Learned something new - didn't know that rabbits would live in a marsh! Also, I think the last picture of the turtle looks like he is doing a sun salutation. I always enjoy your pictures. They are very beautiful.

  3. Great photos! I am amazed that you could see and capture so much wildlife all in a single day.

  4. Wonderful photos - not generally species we get to see in the UK (ducks and rabbits excepted)
