If you plan to the Florida Everglades, you won’t see everything in one day. It’s ginormous! Here are just some of the many species of birds I was lucky enough to capture on camera.

This little guy caught himself a fish!

Great White Heron

I believe this to be a blue heron. If I’m wrong, please tell me!

This guy’s colors are amazing!

I believe this is the female version of the purple gallinule.

This guy was eating something and buried his food when he saw me. I told him I didn’t want any. :)

American Crow

Very unlike the smaller mockingbirds in our neighborhood, this guy obviously eats well.

This guy caught a fish, too. But I don’t know what kind of bird he is. Can anyone identify him?

I couldn’t get close enough, but I think these are ducks.

Ducks?

Another one I was unable to identify.

What kind of bird am I?

Gators, gators everywhere! They are intimidating creatures, but they won’t harm you unless you mess with them. Feeding is prohibited!

This guy had just caught himself a fish. Notice the smile on his face?

This was a “baby”… about 5 or 6 feet long. Isn’t he adorable? ;)

Look closely. How many gators do you see?
