Magic in St. Marks NWR

I was in St. Marks 8:12am and it did not disappoint. I birded there for @4 hours and saw 93 species -- more than I have ever seen in one place before. I only had one new life bird - American Flamingo, but nine more Florida birds and so much fun! The time just flew by. It is a spectacular place and I highly recommend it! Just WOW!

Here are some of my new friends...

Saw so many of these - Yellow-rumped Warblers

American Avocets

Lesser Scaup

Northern Mockingbird

Birds including Reddish Egret, Willets & American Avocet

Canvasback

Redhead

Reddish Egret

& Snowy Egret

Marbled Godwit

Belted Kingfisher

Wildlife!

American Flamingo (yes, there is just one...but it is so pretty)

Black-necked Stilt

Swamp Swallow

It seems the White Wagtail is no longer at Lake Elberta -- so I dipped on that. Next post will be after I return home. That will be followed by more detailed summaries of my birding destinations.
