The temps were in the 40's as Day 1 of the central Florida birding swing got under way this morning. The effort yielded 22 new species for the year, raising the 2025 YTD tally to 114.
Wilson's Snipes were everywhere at Merrit Island near Cape Canaveral. If you have ever been snipe hunting... this is what you were looking for.
At the Orlando Wetlands, this Common Yellowthroat was in its early nest-building stages.
This Anhinga was enjoying fresh catch of the day...
... While a Tri-colored Heron was searching for a fresh catch of its own.
To this Purple Gallinule, the swamp is just one gigantic salad bar.
Until it's not.
A Little Blue Heron was simply soaking up the bright January Florida sunshine.
